Says "Hard Work Doesn't Go Unnoticed, And Someday The Rewards Will Follow".
The above quote by popular author, Allan Rufus succinctly captured the
moment on Thursday, 19 January 2023, as the MD/CEO of Ace Mall, Mr. Yinka
Afonja presented a brand new car gift to his outstanding staff, Miss Fatoki
Grace Adenike. The event was held at the newly opened Ace Mall Oluyole, Ibadan, the
capital city of Oyo State.
It was such a surprise, not only to the recipient but all staff members
of the company because no one saw it coming.
"This will definitely spur other employees in no small measure to
be more committed," Afonja noted.
The noble gesture, according to Afonja, was a move to reward excellence and dedication to duty. As demonstrated by the recipient over the years that she's been working with the company.
Speaking further during the presentation, Afonja disclosed that the
exercise was just another edition of the gesture which has been in place for
years. Noting that several staff members had benefitted from the car gift
initiative.
He said: "This obviously is not the first time we'll be doing this,
we have given out several cars. But before now it's been going to the market
phasing unit, mostly branch managers. So this is the first time a head office
staff would be getting it. It is well deserved. Even more than well deserved
because Nike has been Chief Admin, the central admin of Ace. She is not just
loyal, she is very hardworking. She is very dedicated and loyal to the
organisation. She is honest too. She is an asset anywhere she goes. And when
people put in that kind of effort, they are actually sowing the seeds for
their own future. Because when you serve others well, there is a way the whole
universe comes to support you to start your own. So, that basically is why we
have decided to always reward our hardworking and loyal staff, as we have done
to Nike today. Not only to celebrate excellence but also to encourage
others."
In her response, the recipient (Nike) was full of smiles and profound
appreciation and promised to continue giving her best to the organisation.
Ace Mall is a one-stop shopping centre with different phases like
Cinema, Boutique, Eatery, Bakery, Salon, Spa, Kiddies Fun Park, Arcade,
Swimming Pool, Bar/lounge and Supermarket.
The mall has branches across the major cities in South West with over
1000 staff, making Yinka Afonja a big-time employer of labour.
