AFRICA’S “MAMA YOUTH” – A LIFE OF SERVICE, LEGACY & INSPIRATION From royal heritage in Lagos to national and continental recognition, Lady Ololade Jokotade Oki (Nee Oshodi) stands as a shining symbol of leadership, discipline, compassion, and youth empowerment. Fondly called “The Mama Youth of Africa,” she has dedicated her life to building young people, strengthening communities, and shaping national development. Born on 27th June 1940 into the prestigious Oshodi family of Lagos, her journey reflects excellence, faith, resilience, and purpose. Educated in Lagos, Kaduna, London, and The Hague, she rose to become the Federal Director of Youth Development, the only female Grade 17 officer in the Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports at the time. Her remarkable contributions earned her over 20 prestigious awards, including national productivity honours and youth development recognitions across Nigeria and Africa. In 2001, former President Olusegun Obasanjo appointed her as the only female member of the Presidential Advisory Council on Youth Affairs. A devoted Christian, mentor, wife to renowned legal icon Jide Bankole Oki, mother, grandmother, and community leader, Lady Oki continues to inspire generations through faith, wisdom, and service.
