Kwara Governor Salutes Professor Sunday Popo-Ola at 60: Celebrating Academic Excellence and Community Leadership
Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has extended warm congratulations to Professor Sunday Popo-Ola of Imperial College London on his 60th birthday today, 2 May 2025.
A native of Esie Kingdom in Irepodun Local Government Area (LGA), Professor Popo-Ola was honoured with the title of Aare Akeweje for his contributions to youth empowerment. He is a celebrated engineer and academic at Imperial College London, ranked among the world's top universities (second to MIT), and Chairman of the Creative Futures Foundation, Nigeria.
Governor AbdulRazaq thanks Prof. Popo-Ola for leading many efforts to upskill young people in his community, especially in STEM education, and his role in many Kwara-focused initiatives in the Diaspora.
"Prof. Popo-Ola has shown that you can be anywhere in the world and still be a critical part of your community. Distance has never been a barrier for him to give back to the state and especially to his people in Esie," the Governor says.
Governor AbdulRazaq asks God to give him many more years of good health and greater heights to continue to serve God and humanity.
