Administrative Headquarters
A permanent base for the club's affairs and Urhobo community coordination in Lagos.
A befitting cultural and administrative headquarters for Urhobo people living in Lagos, envisioned as the "RoboHouse", a permanent home for our heritage and a legacy for generations to come.
For decades, one of the club's most cherished ambitions has been the development of the Urhobo House in Lagos. It will be a dedicated cultural and administrative headquarters for Urhobo people resident in the city, and a place of welcome for visiting Urhobo sons and daughters from across the nation and the diaspora.
More than a building, the Urhobo House will be a centre for cultural celebration, a venue for our gatherings and ceremonies, a hub for community programmes, and a proud symbol of Urhobo presence and unity in Lagos.
Lagos is home to a large and dynamic Urhobo population of professionals, traders, artisans, civil servants, students and retirees, drawn from every kingdom and clan of the Urhobo nation. The Urhobo House will give them a single dedicated cultural home in the city: a familiar threshold to cross, a familiar tongue to speak, a familiar drum to dance to.
It stands at the very top of the administration's five-point agenda. A project the entire Urhobo community is invited to build together, across generations, across kingdoms, across professions.
This is a legacy gift from this generation of Urhobos to the next. Long after present members have passed, the Urhobo House will stand as evidence that the Urhobo nation built a home for itself in Lagos, and welcomed every kingdom and clan inside.
