The Osun State Government has informed the general public that submission of entries for the state's logo has come to an end.

The State Government has also named a panel of judges to review the entries and nominate the first top three from the over hundred submissions.

The panel includes veteran broadcaster, Olusola Ajala; brand specialist, Dayo Oderinu; senior bureaucrat, Moshood Suleiman; Segun Yedupe; and ace graphic artist, Kazeem Olalekan.

The next step according to the state Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Oluomo Kolapo Alimi,

is a review of all entries by the panel of judges, after which the best three designs will be unveiled by Governor Ademola Adeleke on April 30, 2024.

The commissioner disclosed in a statement that the review of the accepted entries will begin today, April 27, 2024, “and a decision on the best logo will be made prior to the 30th of April, 2024.”

“As a Government, we are deeply impressed by the incredible talents demonstrated by every participant. The competition has once again proven the creativity and the abundance of talents possessed by Osun indigenes, whether at home or away.

“While the competition lasted, participants showed exceptional efforts as reflected in the thousands of entries recorded, and we sincerely appreciate them joining us in the journey to defining our identity not just for the present but for the future,” Alimi said.
