Ajimsinmi stated this at the 15th edition of the annual Wole Soyinka International Cultural Exchange (WSICE) in a statement issued after a series of spectacular events held in Nigeria and London, celebrating the 90th birthday of the esteemed Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka.

He reminisced that the month-long festivities, which commenced in early July, culminated in a grand finale,’ A Creative Evening with Wole Soyinka,’ hosted by the British Deputy High Commission Lagos.

“The evening’s programme commenced with vibrant drum beats, live painting, and dance performances. Attendees were treated to a Fireside Chat with Professor Wole Soyinka, followed by the Africa Drum and Fashion session and the opening of the ‘African I.D.E.N.T.I.T.Y – Nine Seasons of Wole Soyinka Exhibition’.

“The event’s highlight was the award presentation to Vision of the Child and Solution17 Community champions Princess Marinay, Valentine Udemadu, Haoma Worgwu, and a child poet, Mofinfunoluwa Atilola, a top-ranked Nigerian female tennis player.

According to him, Wema Bank Plc is one of the major sponsors of the 15th Edition of WSICE 2024 and provided invaluable support for all events held in Nigeria and London.

 

 

 

‘’The Wole Soyinka International Cultural Exchange was established to honour Professor Soyinka’s legacy and reflect his lifelong commitment to education, cultural exchange, and nurturing future leaders. This year’s theme, “Engaging National Interest on Good Governance, Understanding Nation-Building (ENIOGUN),” perfectly encapsulates Soyinka’s profound commitment to creating a just and equitable world. WSICE’s multifaceted programme includes essay competitions, advocacy, and expressions in performing arts, such as poetry, drama, and Spoken Word.’’

 

 

 

The Project Director, Foluke Michael, stated, “Professor Wole Soyinka’s 90th birthday celebration spotlights our commitment to youth development in creativity, entrepreneurship, innovation, sustainability, and nation-building. We are dedicated to continuing the post-celebration project activities through African IDENTITY, The Vision of the Child, and Solution17 Green platforms.
