“Based on my familiarity with Prince Ghandi’s career, particularly as a Pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in Washington, I can confidently say that he is ideally suited for this role, possessing the qualities needed for royalty.
“I commend him for taking on this significant responsibility of ushering a new, modern, and enlightened era in the leadership of traditional institutions in our country. This is a vital step in building a new and fair society that we can all take pride in.
“Individuals like the new Royal leader, who are committed to the advancement of humanity and societal development, are encouraged to engage fully in the task of nation-building by contributing to society’s well-being at various leadership levels. Our traditional institutions have a significant role to play in our pursuit of a New Nigeria. I wish him the best in his new challenges and encourage him to continue working for the progress of his immediate Ogbomosho community and our broader Nigerian society as a whole. We must all collaborate to build the New Nigeria of our aspirations.
“I extend my congratulations to the wonderful people of Ogbomosho and wish the new Soun and his community a productive and fulfilling reign.
“The New Nigeria is a realm of boundless possibilities. – PO”

Taking over leadership at the JAMB headquarters in Bwari, Abuja, Aina succeeds Professor Ishaq Oloyede, whose 10-year, two-term tenure concluded on July 31, 2026. Initially approved by President Bola Tinubu on May 21 when Aina was 39, this appointment marks him as the youngest individual ever to lead the examination body.
When the appointment was first announced, Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, highlighted Aina’s deep background in digital infrastructure, public-sector reforms, and national examination systems, noting his historic milestone as one of Nigeria’s youngest computer engineering professors.
In his inaugural address, Aina acknowledged the foundation laid by his predecessor—who is widely credited with modernizing the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME)—and vowed to expand on those achievements. Emphasizing a strong stance against malpractice, he warned wrongdoers that their illicit activities have no place at JAMB, promising to ramp up modern technological investments and deepen partnerships with security agencies to safeguard the integrity of the admissions process.
