Businessman and philanthropist, Chief Molade Okoya-Thomas, died on Monday at the age of 80 years. Okoya, the Babasuwa of Ijebu-Remo, Asoju Oba of Lagos and the Odofin of Ile-Ife, until his death was....
the Chairman of CFAO Nigeria Limited and Chancellor of Lagos State University (LASU).
With a splendid record of sporting activities during his youth-age, Okoya was the sole sponsor of the annual Asoju Oba Table Tennis Championships for over four decades.
This feat records him as the only Nigerian to have single-handedly and consistently sponsored a competition spanning over four decades.

May His Soul Rest In Peace!
