Senator representing Ondo-South Senatorial District, Dr. Jimoh Ibrahim, has been invited by University of Oxford to the 2024 Oxford Major Programme Management Conference to talk on mega projects.

According to the invitation letter signed by Daniel Armanios, BT Professor and Chair of Major Programme Management, Sa?d Business School, University of Oxford, the billionaire business mogul and the Australian Prime Minister, Julia Gilland, were invited to talk on the same subject matter.

Senator Ibrahim?s PhD programme in the United Kingdom university was based on abandoned mega projects.

The letter sent by the Conference Technical Chair to the senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria reads in parts: ?We are tremendously humbled and honoured to invite you to speak at the 2024 Oxford Major Programme Conference that will be held on December 7, 2024 at the University of Oxford?s Sa?d Business School.

?This conference will bring together practitioners, academics, and global leaders striving to get major programmes, and large-scale initiatives, done.

?This conference will cover a wide range of sectors from infrastructure, defence, and transportation to health and non-profits, and therefore offer a unique opportunity for partnership, learning, and growth.

?The conference will provide a platform to showcase the global benefits brought by major programmes as well as to identify the leading thought leaders and practitioners in the field.

?The purpose of the conference is to recognize challenges, celebrate successes, and provoke thought in the unique surroundings of the University of Oxford, the oldest university in the English-speaking world.

?Lastly, and why we thought of you, the conference will play host to important conversations about the development of major programmes in different regions, including sub-Saharan Africa.

?We would especially welcome you to speak about your experiences in Nigeria, including the establishment of the University of Fortune ? itself a major programme.? (Nigerian Tribune)
