The Federal College of Education (FCE), Iwo, has reaffirmed its commitment to fostering strategic collaboration and alliances with the traditional institutions of Iwo land as part of broader efforts to accelerate institutional development, academic distinction, and progress within the community.
This was communicated during a courtesy visit to the palace of the Oluwo of Iwo land, HIM Oba Dr. Adewale Abdulroshid Akanbi (TELU 1) on Tuesday, July 1 2025, where the College Management alongside members of the Governing Council officially introduced the new Chairman of the College’s Governing Council, Dr Adeniyi Olatunde Adenuga, to the monarch.
The Chairman of the Governing Council, Dr. Adeniyi Olatunde Adenuga, in his speech, commended the Oluwo for his consistent support, encouragement, and active engagement with the institution. Dr. Adenuga highlighted the monarch’s influence in mobilising goodwill and stakeholder support, which has contributed immensely to the college’s growth trajectory. Furthermore, Dr. A. O. Adenuga also made a passionate appeal for continued support from the Iwo community, notable indigenes, and members of the diaspora in critical areas such as infrastructure development, scholarship provision, and academic-industry partnerships.
The Provost, Prof. R. I. Adebayo, used the occasion to express deep appreciation for the support of the king, His Imperial Majesty Oba Dr. Adewale Abdulroshid Akanbi (TELU 1) in advocacy, public goodwill, and community mobilisation. The provost described these efforts as instrumental in laying a strong foundation for the college’s sustainable development.
