Ikoyi Club 1938 in Lagos will host the 29th edition of the Nigeria Cup, the country’s oldest-running Independence Celebration Golf Championship, from September 19 to 27, 2026, with organisers describing preparations as being in full swing.
The tournament, organised by the Ikoyi Golf Community Nigeria Association in collaboration with Ikoyi Club 1938, will build on nearly three decades of tradition while aiming to set new standards in organisation, competition and stakeholder experience.
Chairman of the Organising Committee, Olorogun Mohammed Oyibo, described the 2026 edition as a defining chapter in the Championship’s history, saying it was born of legacy and built for greatness. He said the committee was not simply organising another tournament but building upon a legacy that had inspired generations of golfers, adding that the responsibility was to deliver a championship that honoured that history while setting new standards in competition, organisation and hospitality.
“Our partners are investing in far more than a golf Championship. They are aligning their brands with a legacy that celebrates excellence, leadership and national pride.
