By Khalid Bello Fagge

As the curtain draws close on an exhilarating season, with Week 38 matches set to kick off on May 25th, it's fitting to acknowledge the tireless efforts of Hon. Gbenga Elebele, the IMC Chairman. His unwavering commitment to the league has been a driving force behind its success, and his leadership has undoubtedly left an indelible mark on the competition. As Simon Sinek once said, "Leadership is not about being in charge, it's about taking care of those in your charge." Hon. Elebele has exemplified this definition, demonstrating a remarkable ability to prioritize the needs of the league and its stakeholders.

Furthermore, Maya Angelou's words resonate deeply in this context: "Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better." Hon. Elebele's leadership has been characterized by a commitment to continuous improvement and a willingness to adapt to changing circumstances.

Additionally, Jim Collins' insight is particularly relevant: "Good is the enemy of great." Hon. Elebele's leadership has been marked by a relentless pursuit of excellence, pushing the league to strive for greatness.

Throughout the season, Hon. Elebele has demonstrated exceptional leadership skills, balancing challenges and opportunities with finesse. His commitment to the league's growth and development is a testament to his passion for the sport. As we look to the future, it's essential that we build on the foundations laid this season, addressing the challenges that lie ahead and working towards an even brighter future for the league.

In conclusion, Hon. Gbenga Elebele's commitment to the league is deserving of recognition and commendation. His leadership has been instrumental in shaping the league into what it is today, and we look forward to seeing the impact of his continued dedication in the seasons to come.
