The Management of GISTSMATE MEDIA, a leading online media outlet in Nigeria, heartily felicitates with an illustrious academic, erudite scholar and administrator per excellence, Professor Samuel Ogunwale Ogundiran, CMC, FIMC, on his well-deserved induction into the prestigious Nigerian Academy of Education (NAE).
The induction ceremony is scheduled to hold on Tuesday, 4th November, 2026 in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory.
Professor Ogundiran, a proud Tapa-born son of Ibarapa land in Oyo State, is a distinguished Professor of Educational Administration and Planning at the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), Abuja. He is a man whose academic journey and professional career have been defined by dedication, integrity, intellectual depth and an unwavering commitment to the growth of the Nigerian education system and a number of prestigious international Universities where he serves as a Visiting Professor.
GISTSMATE MEDIA joins his friends, family members, colleagues, students, mentees, associates and other well-wishers across Nigeria and in the diaspora to celebrate a teacher of teachers, a mentor of mentors, and a positive-oriented educationist whose impact on teaching, learning, research and educational leadership remains indelible.
We note with pride that Prof. Ogundiran’s competence and administrative ingenuity earned him an appointment as the Governing Council Chairman of Adeseun Ogundoyin Polytechnic, Eruwa, Oyo State (formerly The Ibarapa Polytechnic, Eruwa) in 2018 by the late former Governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi.
In recognition of his outstanding performance, transparency, and transformative leadership at the institution, he was reappointed in 2020 by His Excellency, Governor Seyi Makinde, a rare testament to his credibility and result-driven service.
