ILORE started in my office as a lecturer at Afe Babalola University in 2020. With just four students then, I discovered that university students had issues (political, social, environmental etc) they wanted to talk about but didn’t have the platform; in other words students want to be part of general discussion and shape society through their ideas but didn’t find safe places to do so.
Today, we have a two established discussion platforms at Afe Babalola University, Ado-Ekiti, powered by ILORE. 86 talks held so far and scaling to other universities in Nigeria.
