The Okanlomo Odu’a and Bada Olubadan of Ibadanland, Chief Jubril Dotun Sanusi, has been showered with prestigious international honours in the United Kingdom in recognition of his outstanding contributions to humanity, business development, and community impact.
Congratulating the business mogul, the Pacesetters Humanitarian Support Organization described the multiple awards as a deserving global affirmation of Chief Sanusi’s visionary leadership, philanthropy, and unwavering commitment to societal development.
In a statement signed by its Oyo State Coordinator, Mogaji Sunday Paul Igbinsola, and made available to journalists in Ibadan on Thursday, the organization said the honours conferred on Chief Sanusi by GSFEN Business School and GSFEN Worldwide Limited, both based in the United Kingdom, reflect his far-reaching influence across business, hospitality, sports, and humanitarian service.
According to Mogaji Igbinsola, Bada Olubadan of Ibadanland was awarded an Honorary Doctorate Degree in Business Administration (DBA) by GSFEN Business School, alongside the GSFEN Global Humanitarian and Community Impact Award, in recognition of his exceptional role in empowering communities, creating employment opportunities, and supporting social causes within and outside Nigeria.
Mogaji Igbinsola further applauded the recognition extended to Ilaji Hotels and Sports Resort, Chief Sanusi’s flagship hospitality and leisure brand, which received the GSFEN Award of Excellence for Hospitality and Sports Development.
He added that the award acknowledges Ilaji Resort’s growing reputation as a world-class destination that has significantly boosted tourism, sports development, and local economic growth in Oyo State.
Describing Chief Sanusi as a philanthropist of note and a globally connected business leader, PHSO noted that his investments and humanitarian gestures continue to inspire hope and development, particularly among youths and underserved communities.
“The multiple honours are a clear testament to Chief Jubril Dotun Sanusi’s passion for excellence, service to humanity, and commitment to building institutions that positively impact society,” the statement read.
The organization urged other Nigerians in positions of influence to emulate Chief Sanusi’s dedication to nation-building, adding that his achievements have once again projected Ibadanland, Oyo State, and Nigeria positively on the global stage.
