Over 100 guests, partners, beneficiaries, staff and partners from the public and private sectors gathered to honour the British Council’s eight decades of contributions to Nigeria’s educational and cultural landscape.

The event, with the theme “Amplifying the Voices of the Future,” emphasised the organisation’s dedication to fostering impactful change.

In his welcome address, Chilufya Besa, Acting Country Director of the British Council, reflected on the organisation’s long-standing role in supporting Nigerian communities and youth.

He remarked, “The British Council in Nigeria has been at the forefront of fostering connections, empowering communities, and creating educational and cultural exchange pathways that have shaped countless lives.”

He said, “We are proud of the countless young people who have become employable, business owners, job creators, and agents of change within their communities through British Council-led programmes.”

Reflecting on the theme of the celebration, Simon Field, Deputy Head of Mission, Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), representing the Deputy High Commissioner, added in his opening speech, “Amplifying the Voices of the Future is especially fitting for our 80th anniversary in Nigeria, as it indicates our commitment to empowering young people, who are Nigeria’s future leaders, creators, and innovators.”

He continued, “We remain committed to fostering deeper connections, creating opportunities for young people, and building a future that respects cultural heritage while embracing innovation and inclusivity.”

The event featured two fireside chats, each delving into youth empowerment’s impact and future potential in Nigeria. Brenda Fashugba, the Regional Lead for Creative Economy, SSA, and Head of Arts Nigeria at the British Council, led the first discussion on “Unlocking the Economic Potential of Young People Now and in the Future. “
