The National President of the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transportation (CILT), Boboye Oyeyemi, and the Dean of the School of Transportation and Logistics, Lagos State University (LASU), Ogochukwu Ugboma, will headline the 12th edition of the Nigeria Transport Lecture (NTL) slated for Thursday, June 18, 2026, in Lagos.
The annual lecture is convened by Transport Day Media, a specialised platform dedicated to transportation and logistics reporting and analysis.
Both speakers are expected to lead discussions on the theme: “Multi-modal Transportation Safety in Nigeria: Prospects, Challenges & Contribution to National Growth”.
The event will hold at Radisson Blu Hotel Ikeja and is projected to draw key stakeholders from both the public and private sectors of the transport and logistics industry. Participants will engage in robust conversations around safety imperatives and policy frameworks required to strengthen Nigeria’s evolving multi-modal transport system.
Over the years, the Nigeria Transport Lecture has hosted distinguished industry leaders and policymakers, including former Director-General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Dakuku Peterside; former Federal Permanent Secretary, Anthonia Ekpa; former Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Boboye Oyeyemi; and the Managing Director of the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC), Kayode Opeifa, among others.
Speaking ahead of the event, the Editor of Transport Day Media, Frank Kintum, described the lecture as a critical platform for addressing pressing industry issues.
“Each year, we leverage this platform to interrogate contemporary challenges in the sector. This year’s focus on multi-modal transportation safety is deliberate, as safety remains the backbone of all transport initiatives. Without it, ongoing investments across modes risk being undermined”, he said.
Kintum added that the lecture reflects the organisation’s commitment to fostering a safe, efficient, and sustainable transport and logistics ecosystem in Nigeria and across Africa.
