- Sensitize stakeholders on the significance of the Redemptive Ideology towards national/continental transformation;
- Present succinct and documented evidence of the need for deliberate, intentional and creative ideas, policies and systems for the desired transformation of the nations of Africa; and
- Identify opportunities and approaches for harnessing Africa’s massive God-given resources and the collective consciousness of the African peoples in pursuit of the requisite transformations.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the much-anticipated lecture will be held virtually on Saturday, August 28, 2021 between 2 pm and 4pm.
