The year 2015 marked a turning point in the global Yoruba renaissance as the Oodua Progressive Union (OPU) hosted a defining event in Ikeja, Lagos—the beating heart of Nigeria’s commercial and cultural vitality.
Ikeja 2015 wasn’t just an event; it was a rallying cry. A homecoming of dreams and visionaries. OPU members from across continents converged on Lagos to reaffirm their identity, deepen strategic ties, and strengthen the bridge between Yoruba sons and daughters at home and abroad.
What made Ikeja 2015 unforgettable:
- Electrifying addresses by OPU’s global leadership, led by Otunba (Dr.) Gani Adams
- Dialogues on self-determination, cultural preservation, and economic empowerment
- Traditional performances that reignited pride in Yoruba heritage
- A renewed international mandate to project Yoruba values globally and support grassroots development at home
Ikeja 2015 became the foundation stone—an iconic gathering that solidified OPU’s place as a force for cultural diplomacy and diaspora-led development. From the speeches to the songs, every moment was a testimony to the enduring legacy of the Yoruba people.
From Lagos, a fire was lit—burning with unity, pride, and resolve.
