The International Association of World Peace Advocates (IAWPA) has announced that it will be inducting Victor Adegbile as an Eminent Peace Ambassador.
The international spokesman of IAWPA, Amb Dr Emmanuel Nkweke, made this known in a statement made available to journalists in Abuja, Nigeria. He described Adegbile as a vibrant young Nigerian with special interests in the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations (UN).
Victor Adegbile, the Chief Executive Officer of Land Republic Limited, a leading player in property development in Nigeria, was described by IAWPA as a man of visionary leadership, a trait, which it said has propelled him to one of the leading practitioners in the area of affordable housing for Nigerians.
He has also carved a niche for himself in the area of SDGs through ensuring proper environmental standards in the quest for affordable housing in the country.
IAWPA, which enjoys a Special Consultative Status under the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) of the United Nations since 2019, has been a front runner in the promotion of global and regional peace. It has also promoted the activities of the United Nations in the African sub-region.
The association further stressed that it will continue to support and identify with Nigerians like Victor Adegbile who was listed by Guardian Newspapers as one of of the most definitive CEOs in Nigeria in 2023, to impact more in attaining key areas of the SDGs programme of the United Nations.
