    As part of activities marking the 91st birthday of the Awujale and Paramount Ruler of Ijebuland, Oba (Dr.) Sikiru Kayode Adetona, GCON, Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago-Iwoye, will host the 9th edition of the Oba (Dr.) Sikiru Kayode Adetona Annual Professorial Chair Lecture.

    This was disclosed on Tuesday, in a statement issued by Deputy Registrar, Corporate Affairs Division of the institution, Niyi Oduwole.

    The lecture, scheduled for Saturday, May 10, 2025, will be delivered by the National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, and will focus on the theme: “Corruption and National Security: Impacts and Consequences.”

    It will hold at 11am inside the Ogbagba Hall of the Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona School of Governance Studies, Ago-Iwoye.

    The annual event is part of an enduring legacy established by Oba Adetona, who in 2016 endowed the university with a N500 million Professorial Chair in Governance to promote research, discourse, and leadership in public policy.

    Since then, the lecture series has become a national platform for stakeholders in academia, government, and the private sector to engage on issues of governance and national development.

    Widely regarded as the longest-reigning monarch in the world, Oba Adetona is also the university’s most prominent benefactor.

    His philanthropic gestures include the establishment of the School of Governance Studies, donation of residential facilities for scholars, construction of the Vice-Chancellor’s Lodge, and facilitation of major infrastructural projects on campus.

    At the monarch’s 90th birthday celebration in 2024, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu announced the adoption of the Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona School of Governance Studies by the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS).

    The President also conferred on Oba Adetona the national honour of Grand Commander of the Order of the Niger (GCON), in recognition of his contributions to national development and public service education.

    This year’s lecture will also feature opening remarks by the Chairperson, Governing Board of the Professorial Chair, Princess Adetoun Adetona-Daramola.

    The Pro-Chancellor and Chairman, Governing Council, Prof. Toyin Ashiru, OON, and the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Ayodeji Agboola, are expected to deliver goodwill messages.

    The event is expected to attract top government officials, royal fathers, captains of industry, academics, and members of the university community. All attendees have been urged to be seated promptly.
