OSUN Members - 2001
|
The Osun Indigenes Organisation (TOIOG) was established on February 3, 1990
by a free-minded indigenes. In consultation with friends, they
unanimously decided that it was time to foster relationship between the
Osun Indigenes and Nigerians in the United States. TOIOG was also
created to promote cultural, social political heritage and provide
economic empowerment to our people. Since its inception, TOIOG has been
an avenue of support to many groups and individuals.
The goals have since broadened to embrace
the changes in Nigeria as well as incorporate the current and future
needs of Nigerian citizens home and abroad. TOIOG has vowed its
commitment to coordinate and cooperate with other organization in
promoting issues and providing a network of information that would
benefit Nigerians.
TOIOG has members in the Washington
Metropolitan area, New York, New Jersey, Canada, Georgia and Nigeria.
Membership is opened to all indigenes of old Osun Province. These are
the people who have not had the privilege of adequate manpower
development. They were less represented in most government plans and
decisions. The people who belong to the Osun organization utilize their
meeting as the common ground to discuss and resolve issues affecting
our people and carry out visions for our future generations.
These attributes of TOIOG continue to
influence individuals, organizations and government agencies. With the
renewed efforts of members to care for others in need and share their
generosity with others, the organization will continue to lead in
project plans and execution to uplift the spirit of our children to
face the future challenges.
In a move towards the enrichment of the
struggling generation back home, TOIGO has donated computers, printer,
copier and medical equipments to some establishments in Osun State. We
have scholarship programs for Osun students.
All Osun Indigenes are urged to join this
peace loving, organization. Membership and other information can be
obtained from the General Secretary at PO Box 3093 Hyattsville, MD
