The commendation was made when a team from Nigerian
Breweries paid a courtesy visit to the Kabiyesi in his Palace in Akure
to felicitate with the monarch on his second year anniversary on the throne.
The team also used the occasion to inform Kabiyesi of the cultural music
talent concert, Ariya Repete holding in the city on that day.
“Respect is a key attribute of Goldberg, and so we are
here to pay homage to Kabiyesi on his second year anniversary and for
also giving us the opportunity of coming to Akure for the quarterfinal of Ariya
Repete”, said Tayo Adelaja, Public Affairs Manager, West and Mid-West,
Nigerian Breweries Plc.
He further reiterated that Nigerian Breweries Plc as a
corporate and responsible citizen promotes the identification and nurturing of young
talents through its cultural music platform, Ariya Repete, thereby reducing
the impacts of youth unemployment in the country.
On his part, Kabiyesi commended Goldberg and
Nigerian Breweries for their immense support to the cultural traditions of
Akure which his throne represents since his coronation two years ago. “On my
coronation, it was Goldberg that supported me; during my first year
anniversary, it was Goldberg; and now my second year anniversary and it is
still same Goldberg.”
The Kabiyesi then declared ‘Goldberg as the official
drink of the palace,” and gave his support and blessings to the team for
bringing Ariya Repete quarterfinal to Akure.
Funso Ayeni, Senior Brand Manager, Regional Mainstream
Brands, Nigerian Breweries Plc congratulated Kabiyesi on his anniversary
and expressed his delight for the support the monarch has shown to Ariya
Repete.
He further revealed that the brand would continue to do
more to promote the cultural ethos of the people of Southwest, particularly by
making the forthcoming Oyemekun Festival in Akure a very grand ceremony.
