Celebrating Baba Gesto, Chairman, ACN Elders Council Today, we bow with deep respect and gratitude as we celebrate the 74th birthday of a remarkable father, an esteemed Elder, a distinguished Avian and a true custodian of the values, traditions and brotherhood that bind us together. Baba Gesto, your 74 years represent more than the passage of time, they represent a journey enriched by experience, wisdom, service, sacrifice and the countless lives you have influenced through your presence and counsel. As Chairman of the Aviary Club of Nigeria Elders Council, you occupy a position that transcends title and office. You stand as a bridge between generations, a keeper of wisdom and a father to many. Your leadership reminds us that the strength of a fraternity is not merely in its numbers, but in the character of the men who preserve its values and guide those who come after them. Over the years, your calm disposition, kindness, humility, patience and remarkable wisdom have distinguished you as a man whose authority needs no noise. You lead with the quiet strength of experience and the reassuring presence of a father who understands that every brother deserves to be heard, respected and guided. There is a sacred responsibility attached to elderhood. It is the responsibility to preserve unity, settle differences with wisdom, protect the dignity of the brotherhood and ensure that the values handed down to us are not lost with time. You have carried that responsibility with honour. Your journey within the Aviary Club of Nigeria has made you not merely an Elder by age, but an Elder by wisdom, character and service. Your counsel has provided direction, your patience has encouraged peace, and your fatherly disposition has helped strengthen the bond that exists among brothers. Indeed, you personify the timeless truth that wisdom comes with age. At 74, your life stands as a testament to the beauty of experience and the grace that comes from years lived with purpose. Today, we honour you not only for the years you have attained, but for the legacy you continue to build. We celebrate the father in you. We celebrate the Elder in you. We celebrate the Avian in you. We celebrate the wisdom in you. And we celebrate the brother whose presence continues to give strength and dignity to our fraternity. On this special occasion, may the Almighty continue to preserve your life, strengthen your body, renew your spirit and grant you many more years of peace, sound health, fulfilment and divine favour. May your remaining years be filled with the joy of family, the warmth of brotherhood, the honour of your legacy and the satisfaction of seeing the values you have upheld continue to flourish in generations to come. May the wisdom with which you have guided others continue to shine upon you, and may the same hands that have helped hold our brotherhood together continue to receive abundant blessings. Happy 74th Birthday, Baba Gesto. From all of us in the Aviary Club of Nigeria, we salute you with deep honour, brotherly affection and profound gratitude. May you continue to stand tall as a Father, Elder, Mentor and Custodian of the Brotherhood. Happy Birthday, Our Esteemed Chairman. Happy Birthday, Baba Gesto. May your wings continue to soar in honour and dignity. With fraternal honour and deepest respect.

What does brotherhood mean when one of our own is no longer here? Does the bond end with his passing, or does our commitment extend to the family he leaves behind? The Edo South Grande Council has demonstrated that genuine brotherhood goes beyond shared gatherings and celebrations. It is also about showing up for one another, especially when life becomes difficult. As part of its outreach activities ahead of the Aviary Club of Nigeria's 30th anniversary, the Edo-South Aviary undertook a meaningful visit on Day 4 of its outreach programme. Led by its Chapter President, Avian Uche Uchukwuka, alongside members of the Executive Council, the delegation visited the homes of wives of departed Avians. The visit was more than a courtesy call. It was an opportunity to acknowledge the families left behind and provide practical assistance. The delegation presented bags of rice, financial support and words of encouragement to the women. For the beneficiaries, the gesture addressed immediate household needs while delivering an equally important message: you have not been forgotten, and you remain part of this brotherhood's extended family. The women expressed appreciation for the visit and the support received. The delegation also encouraged them to reach out whenever they encountered serious challenges and needed assistance. Although the outreach was a single initiative, its message carries a lasting lesson. Service is not measured only by the scale of resources provided, but also by the thoughtfulness, compassion and commitment behind the action. What Can Other Avians Learn? The Edo South example reminds us that meaningful service often begins with noticing a need and choosing to respond. It challenges every Avian to look beyond routine club activities and consider how we can make a practical difference in the lives of people around us. It could be checking on a bereaved family, supporting a vulnerable household, volunteering professional expertise or responding to a pressing community need. We commend the Edo South Grande Council for demonstrating that the values of brotherhood are most meaningful when translated into action. Let Service Become Our Shared Legacy As we celebrate our identity and look towards the future of the Aviary Club of Nigeria, let us carry this same spirit of commitment into our communities and our collective aspirations. Support those who need a helping hand. Contribute according to your capacity. Offer relevant skills and give your time to initiatives that strengthen our communities and advance the ACN Permanent Site Project. Because a lasting legacy is not defined only by what we build, but also by the lives we touch and the people we refuse to forget.

The North America Region of the Aviary Club of Nigeria warmly welcomes our Global President, Sir Odia Eromosele, back to North America. For the second time in just one year, the Global President has undertaken the long journey across continents to connect with members, strengthen relationships and advance the vision of the Aviary Club of Nigeria. Such a journey is certainly not easy. Beyond the miles travelled are responsibilities at home, family commitments, professional obligations and the demands that come with leading a global fraternity. But when commitment calls, a true leader answers. His return to North America is therefore more than another trip, it is another demonstration of dedication to the brotherhood and to the responsibility entrusted to him as Global President. Upon his arrival, he was warmly received by the North America Regional President, the Chapter President of Peach Aviary, and a respected Avian, who welcomed him with the warmth and brotherhood that define the Aviary family.

The Aviary Club of Nigeria warmly congratulates one of its distinguished elders, Avian Elder Barr. Hon. Hope Isowa Iyare, on his appointment as Special Adviser to the Governor on Grassroots Mobilization, effective November 4, 2026. The appointment, approved by Senator Monday Okpebholo, Executive Governor of Edo State, is a recognition of Elder Iyare’s wealth of experience, leadership capacity, legal background, commitment to community development, and proven understanding of grassroots engagement. For the Aviary Club of Nigeria, this moment is not only a personal achievement for one of its respected members, it is also a proud reflection of the values of leadership, service, brotherhood, responsibility and community impact that the Club continues to promote. Avian Elder Barr. Hon. Hope Isowa Iyare is a legal practitioner and community oriented leader whose journey has been characterised by service, responsibility and commitment to the advancement of society. As a former President of the Edo South Chapter of the Aviary Club of Nigeria, and now a distinguished member of the Elders Council of Edo South Aviary, Elder Iyare has demonstrated that true leadership goes beyond titles. It is about influence, sacrifice, wisdom and the ability to bring people together for a common purpose. His professional experience in law, combined with his political and grassroots engagements, provides a strong foundation for his new responsibility. Grassroots mobilization requires a leader who understands people, communities, aspirations and challenges and Elder Iyare has consistently demonstrated these qualities.

The Club has always maintained that its members should not merely exist within society but should contribute meaningfully to its development.

The strength of every great fraternity lies not only in the bonds its members share, but also in the values they uphold, the responsibilities they embrace and the legacy they build together. As Avians, our shared identity must be reflected in unity, integrity, discipline, mutual respect, service and accountability. These values should go beyond words and gatherings; they must guide our actions and commitment to the continuous growth of the Aviary Club of Nigeria. One important expression of this collective responsibility is our commitment to the ACN Permanent Site. This is more than a construction project or the acquisition of a physical asset. It represents stability, continuity, belonging and an enduring institutional legacy for present and future generations of Avians. Achieving this vision requires collective ownership and meaningful participation. While our individual capacities may differ, every Avian has a role to play in bringing this aspiration to reality. The responsibility cannot rest on a few individuals or chapters; it belongs to the entire fraternity. Ultimately, brotherhood is measured not only by what we enjoy together today, but also by what we are willing to build and preserve for tomorrow. Let us move beyond words to action, individual interests to collective progress, and promises to purposeful participation. The future of ACN is our shared responsibility. The legacy we leave is ours to build.

Thank you..🙏🏾

Formally registered on 19 July 1996, the Aviary Club of Nigeria evolved from a foundation of friendship and brotherhood into an international fraternity of professionals, leaders and community advocates. From its early leadership development to the establishment of the Global Council in December 2010 and the constitutional development initiated at the Ikorodu Summit in February 2012, ACN has continued to strengthen its governance and leadership framework. Today, under the leadership of Global President, Sir Odia Eromosele (2022–Present), the Club continues to pursue global expansion, institutional development and stronger international cooperation. CORE VALUES: THE BENEFITS OF OUR BROTHERHOOD Our values are not merely principles written in documents, they are responsibilities reflected in our everyday actions. * Brotherhood: Creates lasting relationships, mutual support and a dependable network. * Integrity: Builds trust, credibility and responsible membership. * Leadership: Develops individuals capable of influencing positive change. * Discipline: Promotes accountability, respect and organizational stability. * Service to Humanity: Extends our influence beyond the fraternity through charitable interventions. * Unity: Connects Avians across geographical and cultural boundaries. These values make the Aviary more than an association, they make it a platform for personal development, professional networking, collective progress and meaningful societal impact. GLOBAL ADVOCACY & DOCUMENTED IMPACT Our history becomes meaningful when our values translate into action. 1. Anti-Cultism Advocacy – Say No to Cultism, See Something, Say Something. ACN actively discourages cultism, violence and drug abuse through public awareness campaigns, youth sensitisation and its Say No to Cultism initiative. The Global Council also contributed ₦1,050,000 towards strengthening this advocacy. 2. Community Security – Building Safer Communities ACN promotes community vigilance, cooperation with security agencies and responsible information sharing. On 4 September 2025, the Club applauded Edo State’s security efforts against cultism and kidnapping, encouraging citizens to support lawful security initiatives. 3. Peacebuilding – Promoting Unity and Coexistence Through its Peace Begins With Us campaign on 21 September 2026, ACN encouraged dialogue, tolerance, mutual respect and peaceful conflict resolution across communities and its international membership. 4. Youth Empowerment – Investing in the Next Generation ACN supports education, mentorship and vocational development. Notable interventions include: * 15 July 2024: Aso and Regal Buckingham Aviaries donated approximately ₦800,000 worth of educational materials to students in Abuja. These are practical demonstrations that our brotherhood extends beyond our membership. ADMINISTRATION: STRUCTURE THAT SUSTAINS OUR VISION A global fraternity requires effective leadership and responsible administration. ACN operates through established governance and administrative structures, including the Global Council, Board of Trustees, Regional Councils, and Chapter Councils. These structures promote coordination, accountability, representation, continuity and effective administration across our global network. Our administrative strength is essential to preserving our identity, enforcing our principles and ensuring that the Club’s vision remains sustainable across generations. OUR COLLECTIVE RESPONSIBILITY As Avians, we are custodians of a legacy built over decades. Understanding our history should inspire us to protect our values, celebrate our achievements, document our contributions and improve upon the foundation laid by those before us. The future of ACN depends not only on those who lead but also on every member who chooses to participate, contribute and uphold the Aviary ideology.

Aviary Club of Nigeria Condemns Attack and Violence Following the Tragic Death of 15 Year Old Ghanaian Boy, Javits Frimpong, in New York. The Aviary Club of Nigeria expresses its profound sadness and heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, classmates and loved ones of Javits Frimpong, the 15 year old Ghanaian boy who tragically lost his life following a shooting incident in the Bronx, New York, on 29 October 2026. We extend our deepest sympathies particularly to his parents, Mr Thomas Frimpong and Mrs Doris Adu Gyamfi, whose grief is beyond what words can adequately describe. No parent should have to endure the devastating experience of losing a child under such tragic circumstances. Our thoughts and prayers are with the bereaved family and the Ghanaian community at this difficult time. BEYOND THE TRAGEDY: THE DANGERS OF BULLYING Reports surrounding Javits’s death indicate that his father had previously raised concerns about alleged bullying at his son’s school. According to his account, Javits had complained about repeated harassment, and two students had reportedly been suspended following an earlier confrontation. Although investigators have not established a connection between the reported bullying and the fatal shooting, the circumstances raise serious questions about the safety of children, the effectiveness of anti bullying interventions and the responsibility of institutions to protect vulnerable students. Complains should never be dismissed as ordinary childhood behaviour, harmless teasing or a normal part of growing up. Repeated intimidation, humiliation, threats and physical aggression can leave lasting emotional and psychological consequences. When warning signs are ignored or inadequately addressed, the consequences can become devastating. WHERE THE AVIARY CLUB OF NIGERIA STANDS The Aviary Club of Nigeria stands firmly against bullying, intimidation, harassment, discrimination, violence and every form of conduct that threatens human dignity. Our position is clear: No child should be afraid to attend school, walk home, express themselves or exist peacefully within their community. As an international fraternity built on brotherhood, integrity, discipline, leadership and service to humanity, ACN believes that protecting children and promoting peaceful communities are collective responsibilities. Our advocacy extends beyond condemning wrongdoing. We encourage practical actions, including: Responsible Parenting: Parents and guardians must create an environment where children feel comfortable discussing their fears, experiences and challenges without intimidation or judgment. Institutional Accountability: Schools must take every bullying complaint seriously, investigate promptly, protect affected students and maintain appropriate follow-up even after disciplinary measures have been taken. Youth Responsibility: Young people must understand that strength is demonstrated through character, self-control and respect for others, not intimidation, aggression or violence. Community Intervention: Community leaders, civil society organisations and responsible associations must actively promote awareness, mentorship and peaceful conflict resolution. Justice and Due Process: We call for a thorough, transparent and impartial investigation into Javits’s death, with anyone found responsible held accountable under the law. A MESSAGE TO OUR YOUNG PEOPLE Your words, actions and decisions have consequences. Never allow peer pressure, anger, jealousy or the desire to establish superiority to turn you into a source of suffering for another person. To those experiencing bullying: speak up, report incidents to trusted adults and seek support. You do not have to endure intimidation in silence. To those who witness bullying: do not encourage it, celebrate it or remain indifferent. Report it through appropriate channels and support those being targeted To parents, teachers and school administrators: listen carefully when a child speaks about being threatened or repeatedly harassed. Sometimes, what appears to be a minor disagreement may be a serious cry for help. OUR COMMITMENT: BROTHERHOOD BEYOND MEMBERSHIP The Aviary Club of Nigeria recognises that its responsibility to society goes beyond its membership and geographical boundaries. Through our humanitarian programmes, anti cultism campaigns, community security advocacy, youth empowerment initiatives and peacebuilding efforts, ACN remains committed to promoting a society where human life is respected and everyone has the opportunity to live with dignity and security. We believe that the true measure of brotherhood is not only how we stand for one another but also how we defend the dignity, safety and well being of humanity. Javits’s death must not become another tragic headline that society eventually forgets. It should strengthen our collective determination to confront bullying, improve child protection systems and create safer environments for the next generation. May his death not be in vain. May justice prevail, and may his family find the strength to endure this painful loss.
