His humanitarian interventions—spanning education support, health outreach, youth empowerment, and community infrastructure—have earned him widespread admiration and trust among the grassroots.

The ICON of IBADAN HERITAGE AWARD reflects CCII’s acknowledgement of individuals whose selfless service, cultural pride, and commitment to societal progress continue to uphold the dignity and values of Ibadanland. Dr. Oladimeji’s consistent dedication to uplifting the less privileged and strengthening communal bonds aligns with these noble ideals.

The event is expected to commence at 11:00 a.m. and will be held under the leadership of the CCII President-General, Chief Barr. Suleiman Ajeniyi Ajewole.

The ceremony is expected to attract Ibadan indigenes from within and outside Nigeria, traditional leaders, community stakeholders, political figures, civil society actors, and supporters of Hon. (Dr.) Ezekiel Temitope Oladimeji from across the globe, all coming together to celebrate a man whose life and service embody compassion, leadership, and cultural pride.

As anticipation builds, many see this honour as not only a recognition of past achievements but also a renewed call for sustained service to humanity and the continued advancement of Ibadanland.
