IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE BENEFICENT, THE MERCIFUL

REPORT OF UNIFEMGA, LAGOS CHAPTER PRESENTED AT THE NATIONAL REUNION OF UNIFEMGA HELD AT OBAFEMI AWOLOWO UNIVERSITY, ILE-IFE BETWEEN 22nd-24th MAY, 2009.

All praise is due to Allah (The Owner of the Universe). It is by His Mercies that we are Muslims and it is our prayer that we should not die except as Muslims, Amin.

The core values of UNIIFEMGA which drive the vision and mission of our great Association remains the flagship that pilot our programme of activities.

Having spent 17 calendar months out of the 24 months of the present executive, our chapter drew the following programmes for the 2 year tenure:

1. Ileya Picnic: This took place in February 10, 2009 at Cool Breeze Resort at Alpha Beach, Lekki, Lagos State. This programme was used to welcome our members who participated in 2007 Hajj as well as entertain our members, non-members and their families. Due to popular demand, the Ileya Picnic is now known as Family Picnic.

The 2009 Family Picnic was held at FUNTOPIA where members received value for their money compared to our former venue, Alpha Beach.

2. 1 day retreat for the young: This programme is targeted at newly graduated members of the Association with a view to train them to enable them perform better at their different place of work and/or to succeed in their various business callings.
It comes up once in a year and the year 2008 edition as held as detailed below:

Venue: UAC Training Centre, Apapa, Lagos.
Date: June 15, 2008
Fee: A token

The 2009 edition of the 1-day retreat programme was scheduled to take place on April 26, 2009, but due to unforeseen circumstances on the part of the Capacity Building Committee, the committee will advice members on a new date very soon.

3. Prayer Meetings: We scheduled 4 prayer meetings for the year 2008 but unfortunately, we were able to meet thrice. At the prayer meetings, we use to supplicate to Allah and thereafter hold our general meeting. The 3 prayer meetings were hosted as follows:

Date	Host	Venue	Time
March 30, 2008	Alhaji & Alhaja A. Popoola House	39, Atlantic Beach Estate, Off Ligali Ayorinde Street, Victoria Island, Lagos.	10 a.m.
