The Sultan Maccido Institute of Leadership at the Peace and Development Centre, Yakubu Gowon University, formerly University of Abuja, has honoured Deputy Commissioner of Police and academic, Dr. Akeem Adedeji, in recognition of his hard work, selfless service, and dedication to human development.

The award was conferred on Dr Adedeji on Monday, September 30, 2025.

Speaking, the Acting Vice-Chancellor of the University, Professor Mathew Adamu, commended Dr. Adedeji for his passion and commitment, describing him as a role model worthy of emulation.

“We must recognise people who give back to society.

“That is one of the biggest challenges we have as a country; many people don’t know how to give back.

“Giving back does not necessarily have to be about money.

“There are intangible contributions that cannot be measured in monetary terms, and that is what these gentlemen are doing for our country.

“That is why we want to thank and appreciate you for what you are doing,” the Acting VC said.

Dr. Adedeji has been lecturing pro bono at the university for the past five years.


Honoured alongside Dr Adedeji is Major General Bolaji Koleoso (rtd), who was also commended for his selfless service to humanity.

In his response, Dr Adedeji expressed gratitude to the university authorities for the recognition, noting that he and other honourees had always given their best without expectation of reward.

Earlier, the Director of the Institute, Professor Mohammed Yelwa, also praised the honourees for their consistency and dedication.

He stressed that their efforts had added immense value to the institute’s programmes and the university as a whole.

As part of the occasion, Dr. Adedeji donated several books to the university’s library.

Dr. Akeem Adedeji holds a PhD in Law from a Malaysian university, he possesses five Master’s degrees in International Law, Business Administration, Information Technology, Public Administration, and Cyber Investigation & Law.

He also holds two Bachelor’s degrees in Law and Public Administration.

Apart from being a police officer, Dr Adedeji is a lawyer by profession having attended the Nigeria Law School, Bwari, Abuja, F.C.T and called to bar.

He is author of over 31 academic books and 45 peer-reviewed journal articles, many of which are accessible online, and he is a member of several professional bodies in Nigeria and abroad.

This honour, according to the university, highlights the importance of selfless contribution to nation-building and the value of intellectual commitment to society.
