Ajimobi's Chief Of Staff, Gbade Ojo, Bags Leadership Award
">

For his contribution to the development of democracy, the Chief of Staff to Governor Abiola Ajimobi, Dr. Gbade Ojo, has just added more feathers to his cap.

He has just received a Pan-African Distinguished Leadership Honour’s award‎ from the African Students’ Union Parliament (ASUP) at a ceremony which took place in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.

ASUP is the umbrella body of students from the 54 member countries of African Union.

According to the Speaker of ASUP, Mr Kewul Abel, Ojo was honoured because of his supportive role to Ajimobi, coupled with his philanthropic gestures to widows and the vulnerable.

Abel, who was represented by Solomon Mensah, the Deputy Speaker, said the decision was taken during the union’s conference at the University of Ghana, Legon in Accra.

“Our recipient for today is a detribalized Nigerian, lover of students/youths and a charismatic personality, who has credible credentials of efficient service delivery.

“His high administrative acumen, financial prudence, employment creation and community service among other attributes, distinguish him as an iconic patriot in African society,’’ he said, adding that the attributes are worthy of emulation.

Mensha said ASUP had taken its time to scrutinise Ojo who had committed his time to serve the common good in accordance to the Pan-Africanism Ideology.

He said that Prof. Chukwuma Ozumba, Vice-Chancellor, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, and President Umar Al-Bashir of Sudan were among past recipients of the award.

Other former recipients are Justice Ibrahim Auta of the Federal High Court of Nigeria and Dr Ogbonnaya Onu, the Minister of Science and Technology.

Reacting, Ojo charged youths to emulate the virtues of excellence displayed by past African nationalists which made them a beacon of light to the entire African continent.

The associate professor of comparative politics recalled the contributions of some African Nationalists like Obafemi Awolowo, Nkwame Nkrumah, Nnamdi Azikiwe and other great African nationalists.

Ojo said the nationalists distinguished themselves during their youthful days with their tremendous contributions to a better Africa.

He added that the energy required for governing and leading was a product of age.

He urged the youth to strive to excel and distinguished themselves beyond their local shores.

According to the Chief of Staff, the menace of examination malpractice and drug addiction stemmed from an inferiority complex.

On the ASUP delegation to the award ceremony were Lanota Chakibe, Majority Leader, Dahunsi Nifesimi, Leader on Gender Issue, Okojokwu Kingsley and Eveh Dominic.
