The Island Club was founded on October 29, 1943, by 50 distinguished Nigerian and non-Nigerian gentlemen in Lagos. Its objective was to promote interracial harmony and good fellowship.
Notable founders included Sir Adeyemo Alakija, Chief S.O. Gbadamosi, Bishop A.W. Howells, Sir Odunmegwu Ojukwu, and Sir A.O. Omololu. Sir Adeyemo Alakija became the club’s first Chairman.
After Nigeria’s independence in 1969, the club’s prestige soared.
It attracted senior diplomats, business leaders, top civil servants, and professionals as members.
In March 1961, the British High Commissioner and counterparts from Germany, Israel, and Sudan joined.
Membership grew from 50 in 1943 to over 7,000 today, spanning Nigeria’s 36 states and countries worldwide.
