Navy Commodore Kunle Olawunmi (rtd): Remember him? He was formerly Deputy Director of Defence Administration at the Defence Headquarters (DHQ), Abuja prior to his retirement some years ago.
Commodore Adekunle Toyin Olawunmi made headlines in the news media sometimes in 2021 when he openly challenged former President Muhammadu Buhari, alleging that the State Security Services had information on persons sponsoring Boko Haram and terrorism generally but refused to act due to lack of presidential support.
The retired Intelligence Czar is presently being considered as a nominee for the Valuable Whistle-Blower Award for the 7th edition of the prestigious Gani Fawehinmi Impact and Integrity Awards (GFIIA) 2024.
The organizers, Human and Environmental Development Agenda(HEDA Resource Centre), has announced the kick-off of public voting which is currently on and expected to end on November 8, 2024.
Adekunle Toyin Olawunmi is now an Associate Professor of Global Counter Terrorism at Chrisland University, Abeokuta.
Nigerians are being urged to kindly participate actively in this process and help honor those who embody the values of impact and integrity championed by the late Chief Gani Fawehinmi.
