Comrade
Olanrewaju Atanda, the immediate past president of Lagos
State Barbers, Hairdressers and Cosmetologists Association, LABHCA has said that his greatest achievement during
his tenure is the acquisition of landed property for the association and for
individual members. Speaking with Seyi
Babalola and Tunde Gbadamosi of Alimosho Standard, the former president thanked
God for helping him during the 8 years tenure he says was a success for him and
for the association.
According to
Comrade Atanda, it was during his administration that the association was able
to secure Government recognition and proper registration of their association
which added integrity to their score card. They got support from the former
governor of Lagos state, Mr. Babatunde Raji
Farshola (SAN) who approved sterilized machines for the association. He added
that the association was able to run skill acquisition programs for members of
the association and intending members through their school, LABHCA Institute of
Cosmetology and Hair Management, LICOHM.
When asked his
best and worst days in office, Comrade Atanda noted that his best and worst
days revolved around the Ikorodu zones of the association. His worst day was
when the Ikorodu zones opted out of LABHCA over a conflict and his best day is
when he was able to resolve the conflict and then reinstate the zones back to
LABHCA.
As a man among
many beautiful women, he says he was able to cope because of his discipline
having gathered experience in the cooperate world before joining the
association. As an ex banker, he said his wealth of experience helped him to
run the affairs of the association and to bring it to an enviable height.
On his
expectations of the new executives led by Comrade Yetunde Ijaoba Oladipupo, he says
with the caliber of the executives, he believes they are equal to the task
ahead of them.
