Rotary International: KSA for Akinyele’s Installation as District Governor

The King of Juju music, Otunba Sunday Ishola Adeniyi Adegeye better known as King Sunny Ade (KSA) and the Shuga Band are billed to thrill Rotarians and non-Rotarians at the Royal Installation of Rotarian (Prince) Henry Olubowale Akinyele as the District Governor of Rotary International District 9111.

According to a press release signed by the Chairman of the Media and Publicity Team of the Installation Planning Committee, Rotarian Segun Adebowale, the event will take place on Sunday, July 13, 2025 at the Victoria Garden Event Center, Alausa, Ikeja.

While describing King Sunny Ade as a complete entertainer, Adebowale said that the committee was intentional about the choices of King Sunny Ade as well as Shuga Band performing at the Royal installation.

This, he said, would effectively cater to and accommodate the varying entertainment needs of the interests of the audience expected at the event.

According to him, “We were very intentional about our choice of the two leading musicians and performers. Our desire is to have the audience lavishly entertained as we install Prince Henry Akinyele as our District Governor for the 2025/2026 Rotary Year, and we enjoy the benefits of our convictions that the duo of the legendary KSA and Shuga Band (the Rave of the Moment) will deliver maximally on that expectation.

‘’More importantly, the incoming District Governor is from a Royal family in Ondo State just as KSA, who is not only from the same state like Prince Akinyele but is also from a Royal family. They both have the DNA of royalty in them.

“It is equally important to note that Shuga Band is led by Rotarian Akinloye Tofowomo who is also from Ondo State. The band will surely complement King Sunny Ade’s performance, and the audience will be entertained most memorably.

“The goal is that while we will be raising funds for humanitarian causes which is the primary essence of the event, it is also being planned to be a most memorable one for all Rotarians and their guests.”

    In another landmark shift in inter agency collaboration, the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have sealed a strategic alliance to stamp out economic sabotage and confront the devastating scourge of road traffic crashes (RTCs) threatening lives and draining Nigeria’s economy.

    Speaking during the strategic engagement, the Executive Chairman of the Commission, Mr. Ola Olukoyede, emphasised that the two organisations share strikingly similar mandates as they both interface directly with the Nigerian public in ways that deeply affect lives, safety, and national prosperity. 

    He stressed that beyond combating economic crimes, the EFCC is also charged with addressing economic sabotage, an area where transport operators who flout regulations cause devastating ripple effects on national growth and citizens’ welfare.

    On his part, the Corps Marshal, Federal Road Safety Corps, Shehu Mohammed, amplified the urgent need for the strategic partnership between the agencies to confront the twin threats of reckless driving and its attendant fatalities, as well as the financial hemorrhage resulting from such recklessness. 

    He maintained that road safety is not merely a transport issue but a national security and economic imperative, requiring a multi sectoral approach to safeguard human lives and stabilise Nigeria’s economy.

    He said: “This alliance between the FRSC and EFCC, both highly respected institutions in the national space, is a bold declaration that economic sabotage through unlawful transport practices and the carnage on Nigerian roads will no longer be tolerated. 

    “It represents a fusion of integrity, law enforcement, and public safety, setting a new benchmark for how Nigerian institutions can unite to protect lives, preserve resources, and secure the future.

    “With this partnership, Nigerians can expect a tougher, more coordinated crackdown on economic crimes linked to the transport sector and a renewed offensive against the culture of impunity that has long endangered lives and undermined national progress.

    “The message is clear! economic sabotage and reckless endangerment of lives on our roads will be confronted with the full weight of the law as FRSC and EFCC, together are determined to raise the bar of strategic partnership.”
