The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, will on Monday, September 9th, 2019, in Akure, Ondo State, deliver this year’s Ulefunta Public Lecture. The Ulefunta Festival is the brainchild of the Akure monarch, the Deji of Akure Kingdom, Oba Aladetoyinbo Ogunlade Aladelusi, who began a process of bringing Akure’s culture into modern remembrance, one of which is the Ulefunta which is now celebrated to impart its lessons on the modern world.
In a programme released by the organising committee of the ceremony headed by Prince Adebisi Adeniyi, the Sultan will also, during the visit, on Sunday, September 8, hold an Inter-Religious Council meeting with all religious leaders in the state with the aim of getting them to keep peace and sustain Nigeria’s unity, in spite of the differences of religion. The Interdenominational meeting will take place at the St. David’s Cathedral Hall, Oke-Ijebu, Akure by 4pm.
The lecture, which will be chaired by the renowned entrepreneur, Chief Michael Ade Ojo, will also have the governor of Ondo State, Mr. Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, as the Special Guest of Honour and will be attended by prominent traditional rulers, religious leaders, opinion leaders, community leaders, youths and students. According to the release, the Sultan, who is the guest of Oba Aladelusi, is expected to arrive Akure, the state capital, today.
