Chief Gabriel Ogundare Bags Another Humanitarian Merit Award

Chief Oluwaseyi Gabriel Ogundare (OGO), a multi-award-winning philanthropist and prominent chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), added another feather to his cap on Sunday, August 25th, 2024.

Ogundare was honored with the Ose Fireball/Humanitarian Icon Award in recognition of his significant philanthropic contributions and unwavering dedication to the development of his community.

The award was presented during the Chronicle Magazine’s 11th Anniversary, Award, and Lecture event, held at OSPDC Ijapo in Akure. The event, widely anticipated across Ondo State, is known as the Ose Fireballs Lecture and Award and serves as a platform to celebrate individuals who have made remarkable impacts in their communities through hard work, leadership, creativity, and philanthropy.

Chief Ogundare, who hails from Imoru in Ose Local Government, has long been celebrated for his charitable activities through The Ogundare’s Foundation. His foundation has been instrumental in uplifting the lives of many within his community, earning him a reputation as a tireless humanitarian.

Over the years, Ogundare has received numerous accolades for his efforts, with the Ose Fireball/Humanitarian Icon Award being the latest in a series of honors that underscore his commitment to social causes.

As the Aare Gbobaniyi of Upenmen Kingdom and the Mayegun of Usoland, Chief Ogundare’s influence extends beyond his philanthropic work. His leadership and active involvement in community development have made him a respected figure in both Ose Local Government and the broader Ondo State.

His latest award places him alongside other distinguished individuals who were also recognized for their contributions to the region during the event.

The Chronicle Magazine’s planning committee dedicated this year’s anniversary to highlighting the achievements of Ose Local Government, with a particular focus on fostering relationships and promoting integration among its prominent indigenes and stakeholders.

The Ose Fireballs Lecture, which featured a keynote address by Hon. Ilepe Johnson, a former Caretaker Chairman of Ose Local Government, centered on the theme “Civil Engagement and Good Governance to Unleash Local Potentials in Ose: Role of Stakeholders.” The lecture provided valuable insights into how effective governance and civic engagement can unlock the potential of the local area.

Chief Ogundare’s recognition at the event is a testament to his enduring impact on the community and his unwavering dedication to humanitarian efforts. His work through The Ogundare’s Foundation continues to inspire others, setting a high standard for community service and leadership in Ondo State.
