Come Friday, November 24, 2017, all roads shall lead to Osogbo, the Osun State capital as a host of A-list Nigerian lawmakers and political leaders shall be lighting up the city for Rave 91.7FM second Anniversary lecture.
The lecture is part of activities marking the second anniversary of Rave 91.7 FM which was commissioned on November 26, 2015 by Osun State Governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola.
Senator Shehu Sani, the representative of Kaduna Central Senatorial District, and former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Wole Olanipekun, will be in Osogbo on November 24, 2017 for the Rave FM Second Annual Anniversary Lecture.
The lecture, with the topic: “Nigeria’s fight against corruption: The facts, the fallacies, the antidotes,” will be delivered by Sani, a civil rights activist, while Olanipekun will be the chairman of the event.

According to the Chief Executive Officer of Rave FM, Femi Adefila: “The choice of the topic is particularly instructive because majority of Nigerians agree that corruption is one of the country’s biggest impediments to development and also in view of the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari’s avowed commitment to fighting the scourge headlong.”
