Tension in the Air as 2019 Remita Champions Cup Hits Final Stage

As part of the build-up to the Remita Cup final on Sunday, organisers of the Remita Corporate Champions Cup (RC3) alongside sponsors and indigenous fintech and human capital management giant, SystemSpecs conducted a trophy tour of the corporate office of 2019 RC3 finalist, Nestlé Nigeria on Tuesday to raise awareness and drum up support for the teams.

The well-attended tour featured big names such as Ex-Super Eagles International and RC3 Tournament Ambassador, Peter Rufai; Chief Operating Officer of MediaVision Limited, Jimmy Shogbesan; Finance and Control Director of Nestlé Nigeria, Jagdish Singla; Brand & Marketing Lead, SystemSpecs, Wale Adetona and Content Lead of SystemSpecs, Oyindamola Olofinlua, among others.

Sola Akinyosoye, Country Human Resource Manager of Nestle Nigeria thanked the organisers and sponsors for hosting such a tournament geared at promoting work-life balance. According to Akinyosoye: “We thank you for the opportunity and we do not take it for granted. We know what it means for us in terms of the bonding, interacting, networking and all that it has afforded, not just team members but as a company. We will continue to encourage you in the hope that you keep up the good work.’’

Akinyosoye reassured attendees of the team’s resolve to win the title, adding that their status as former champions meant that they are no strangers to lifting the trophy. “We won this same cup in 2015, since then we’ve decided to allow other people win the cup so that nobody would accuse us of unfair competition. But this year we decided it’s high time we went there again to bring back the cup, and that’s exactly what’s going to happen,” he said.
