Every great institution is defined not only by what it achieves today, but also by the legacy it deliberately builds for tomorrow. For the Aviary Club of Nigeria (ACN), establishing a permanent site is a vision of permanence, identity, unity and continuity, a place that can stand as a lasting symbol of the Club's values, brotherhood, achievements and aspirations. It is therefore with profound appreciation that the Aviary Club of Nigeria recognizes and celebrates the members of the ACN Permanent Site Fundraising Committee for accepting the responsibility of helping to turn this important vision into reality. The journey towards achieving the Permanent Site goal requires commitment, patience, coordination, sacrifice and the ability to continually inspire others to believe in a shared dream. The Committee has demonstrated these qualities in its efforts to mobilize support and keep the Permanent Site vision firmly in the consciousness of the members of the Club. At the forefront of this important assignment is Avian Segun Oluata, Chairman, whose leadership provides direction and coordination to the Committee's efforts. Leading a fundraising initiative of this importance requires persistence and a strong belief in the objective, and his service represents an important contribution to the Club's collective aspiration. Working alongside him are Avian Ayo Anifowoshe (Europa Province), Avian Nosakhare Igie (North America Province), Avian Olawale Ayeni (Akete Province), and Avian Lucky Oamen (Europa Province), whose commitment and participation have contributed to sustaining the Committee's work. Together, these four Avians have accepted a responsibility that extends beyond individual interests. They are contributing their time, energy and experience towards an objective that belongs to the entire Club. Their willingness to serve reminds us that meaningful institutional progress is often achieved when individuals step forward, accept responsibility and work together for the common good. The Permanent Site dream has not yet reached its final destination, but the Club is steadily moving closer. Every effort made, every contribution received, every Avians' commitment demonstrated and every conversation that keeps the vision alive represents another step forward. The progress recorded so far is a reminder that when members unite around a common purpose, seemingly distant objectives can gradually become achievable realities. The Permanent Site, therefore, should not be viewed simply as a fundraising project. It is a collective legacy project. Its success will depend not only on the efforts of the Committee but also on the willingness of Avians across the Club to continue supporting the vision. There is a role for everyone. Some may contribute financially; others may provide ideas, connections, encouragement, advocacy or other forms of support. What matters is that we continue to move in the same direction. Future generations of Avians will benefit from the decisions and sacrifices being made today. They may walk through the doors of the Permanent Site without fully knowing the individuals who helped make it possible. Yet their presence there will be a testament to those who believed in the vision and chose to act. That is the true meaning of legacy. The Aviary Club of Nigeria therefore encourages all members to continue supporting the Permanent Site Fundraising Committee and to remain committed to this shared aspiration. The responsibility may have been entrusted to a committee, but the vision belongs to all of us. To Avian Segun Oluata, Avian Ayo Anifowoshe, Avian Nosakhare Igie, Avian Olawale Ayeni, and Avian Lucky Oamen, the Aviary Club of Nigeria says "Thank you!". Thank you for accepting the responsibility. Thank you for your commitment and persistence. Thank you for keeping the vision alive and for working towards bringing Avians together around an objective that will outlive us all. Your work is appreciated, your service is recognized, and your commitment is valued. May the spirit of brotherhood, unity and collective service continue to guide this effort. With continued commitment from Avians across Nigeria, the Permanent Site dream can move from aspiration to achievement. Together, we can build it. Together, we can own it. Together, we can leave it as a lasting legacy for generations of Avians to come. Long live the Aviary Club of Nigeria.

The Aviary Club of Nigeria joins global health organisations in creating Awareness about lung cancer August 1 is World Lung Cancer Day — an international day dedicated to raising awareness about the leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. According to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease, lung cancer claimed about 1.8 million lives in 2022 and over 2.5 million people were diagnosed with the disease in that same year. These are not just numbers. Behind each statistic is a father, brother, friend, or colleague whose life was cut short. This day reminds us that awareness, education, and action can change that outcome. As a male-oriented organisation, The Aviary Club of Nigeria recognizes why this day must be commemorated within our brotherhood and beyond. Men are often at higher risk due to occupational exposure to dust, chemicals, and pollutants, a history of smoking, and the tendency to delay seeking medical care. Yet lung cancer does not discriminate. Nearly 60% of people diagnosed today have never smoked or quit years ago. It affects men and women, young and old, smokers and non-smokers alike. Because of this, silence is not an option. As men of distinction, honor, and service, we have a duty to lead conversations that protect life. Lung cancer is often called a "silent killer" because symptoms usually appear in advanced stages. Persistent cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, hoarseness, and unexplained weight loss are warning signs that are too often ignored. But there is hope. Medical research shows a clear difference when cancer is found early. The 5-year survival rate jumps from 27% to 64% with early detection. That is the difference between loss and a second chance. That is why early detection is not just a medical issue — it is a life issue. So what can we do? First, know the signs and do not ignore them. Second, talk to your doctor about screening options. For those at risk, a low-dose CT scan can detect lung cancer before symptoms start. Third, adopt preventive habits: avoid smoking, limit exposure to air pollution and workplace toxins, eat healthy, exercise, and go for regular medical checkups. Early detection saves lives, but it only works when we take the first step. This World Lung Cancer Day, our call to action extends beyond the Aviary brotherhood to families, workplaces, schools, religious groups, and communities across Nigeria and the world. Share this message. Encourage a friend to see a doctor. Break the stigma that lung cancer is only a "smoker's disease." By partaking in the simple act of creating awareness, we might be saving a life. Let us breathe aware. Let us live longer. Let us lead.
