Delegates of the African Hub recently received a warm reception when they visited the palace of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi.
The visit was ahead of the third edition of the Oba Okunade Sijuade Annual Lecture held in Ife on Friday, July 29, 2016.
The lecture series, which started three years ago, was put together to honour the late monarch and to address germane issues in present day society.
Among this year’s dignitaries and invited guests was African Hub, whose corporate presence at the event was completed by the brand ambassador, Damilare Kuku. She was officially introduced to the first class traditional ruler and engaged him in a chat.
Oba Ogunwusi was intimated with the activities of African Hub and the drive of the organisation. He expressed delight at the fact that the organisation was pursuing such a lofty ideal, and he particularly expressed his admiration for the representatives of the African Hub present at the lecture.
The monarch maintained that, like African Hub is doing, it is a necessity to have young entrepreneurs working hard to bring development to the nation and the continent at large. He called on the entrepreneurs not to get discouraged and never to give up.
