According to the organisers, the lecture is an annual event set out to raise awareness of the Gospel values through a critical look at the realities that surround Nigeria as a nation and their contributions to these realities.
In addition, it also aims at immortalising the person and legacy of His Eminence, Anthony Cardinal Okogie, Archbishop Emeritus of Lagos, whose voice in the Nigerian socio political milieu is quite familiar and formidable.
The occasion will feature fund raising for its activities which are mainly geared towards financial support for indigent students in secondary and tertiary institutions.
