Medical doctor turned politician, Olorunnimbe Adeleke Mamora, recently clocked 70 and to mark the day, he decided to roll out the drums in celebration. On the auspicious day, he held a thanksgiving service at the Christ Baptist Church, Gbagada, Lagos.
Mamora, who is currently the Minister of Science and Technology, launched his autobiography where he detailed his sojourn on earth in the last seven decades. The book is simply titled, ‘Olorunnimbe’. He also launched the Mamora Education and Leadership Foundation (MEL). Some of those present at the party, which took place in Lagos, were the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha; a former Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi; former governors of Ogun State, Ibikunle Amosun, Gbenga Daniel; Minister of Transport, Mu’azu Sambo; Minister of State for Health, Ekumankama Nkama; Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Obafemi Hamzat; Erelu Abiola Dosunmu; Aliko Dangote and Femi Otedola.
The chairman of the occasion was former President Olusegun Obasanjo. A former senator, Mamora previously served as Minister of State for Health. In 2018, he turned down President Muhammadu Buhari’s appointment as the chairman of the Abuja Investment and Infrastructure Centre because, according to him, the position was beneath him.
