Key federal ministers, including Mohammed Badaru, Dr Dele Alake, Hon. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, Mohammed Idris, and Senator Abubakar Kyari, are also expected, alongside Northern leaders, business captains, and former and current public officials.

The lecture promises a robust discussion on Nigeria’s journey since independence and the strategic path forward under the Renewed Hope Agenda.
