Rev. (Dr) Isaac Egbewole, the Convener of 2025 Akui Children Christmas party, has said that all machinery has been set for this year's Children Christmas party.
Dr Egbewole said that Akui Children's Christmas party which started with 50 children four years ago witnessed over 800 children in 2024.
"So this year's Christmas party will be unique, for we are planning for 1,000 children, but if we have up to 3,000, they'll all go home happily.
"The programme will be held at Kensington Oduduwa Hall, Ooni's Palace on Saturday 20th of December where children will meet Father Christmas, and go home with school bags, writing materials, toys, free food and Christmas gifts among others.
According to Rev Egbewole, children will receive unique gifts and they will have a remarkable experience, irrespective of their backgrounds, religion or denomination.
Dr. Egbewole stated that Jesus said let all children come to me for there is the kingdom of God, so taking care of children is more rewarding than anything.
While speaking on the purpose of orientation for the volunteers, the convener said that the orientation will enable them to have the knowledge about the programme, the various departments and their functions for effective management for the success of the party.
The Convener stressed that the protocol and due process must be maintained by the volunteers before, during and after the Akui Children's Christmas programme.
Rev. Isaac Egbewole, who is an Ife indigene from Akui Osinkola ruling house and Ejesi Lagare Compound, in Ile-Ife, pledged his unalloyed support for the yearly Akui Children's Christmas party programme.
Dr. Egbewole hinted that Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, the Oloris, Obalufe of Ifeland, Oba Idowu Adediwura, as well as the wife of Osun Deputy-Gov., Dcns Adewusi among other dignitaries are expected to grace this year's party.
