Prof Osaghae is one of the world’s leading authorities in international affairs. As DG of the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs, he leads the intellectual bulwark of Nigeria’s foreign affairs
Furthermore, his membership of international fora including select UN Committees puts him in the company of select International affairs experts
A don with the University of Ibadan, where he is a distinguished Professor of Political Science, Prof was VC of the University of Liberia for over a decade.
As a student of Prof at the famous University of Ibadan Political Science department which had such brilliant scholars like Kunle Amoo, Rotimi Suberu, Fred Onyeoziri, I must thank my father for sending me to the UI Political Science department at the time he did
Prof Osaghae would be contributing a compelling essay on the role of charismatic leadership as a force in Nigeria’s attempts at a global comeback
It was a beautiful reunion
