Ibadan – Governor Seyi Makinde, has congratulated Professor Saheed Aderinto, a professor of History and African Diaspora Studies at the Florida International University, for winning the $300,000 Dan David Prize in History.

The governor in a congratulatory message to the winner on Wednesday maintained that Aderinto’s feat apart from being exemplary, is heartwarming and a source of pride to Oyo, his home state, Nigeria and humanity in general.
