NOVA Bank has reaffirmed its commitment to the well-being and interests of high-net-worth individuals through sponsorship of the 27th Nigeria Cup Golf Tournament.

Hosted at the prestigious Ikoyi Golf Club 1938, the annual tournament for 2024 took place from September 21st, to Saturday, September 28th, 2024.

The Nigeria Cup Golf Tournament, organised by the Ikoyi Golf Community Nigeria Association (IGCNA), showcased the remarkable talent of golfers and the sport’s capacity to foster connections across board. This year, Tayo Babalakin emerged as the Nigeria Cup 2024 Champion, clinching the title with a stunning 85 gross with Handicap (HCP) 19 = 66 net. This victory etched Tayo Babalakin’s name in the history books as the 27th champion of this celebrated tournament.

As a former merchant bank serving high-net-worth clients, NOVA Bank has long valued golf as a recreation sport for business executives to network and relieve stress. The Bank’s transition to a national commercial bank has not diminished this commitment but has instead deepened its relationship with the golfing community, as reflected in its ongoing partnership with the Nigeria Cup.

Chairman of NOVA Bank and an avid golfer, Mr. Phillips Oduoza, highlighted the importance of the partnership in a speech presented by Esther Adino, on his behalf.
