In what could be best described as a significant milestone or historic achievement, the 2025 National President of the Junior Chamber International (JCI), Nigeria, JCI Senator Oluwatoyin Atanda, was named the most outstanding National President for the global youth organisation for the year 2025.
Atanda was declared the most outstanding national president out of over 100 National Presidents of the global youth leadership organisation during the Gala Night of Junior Chamber International (JCI) World Congress, held in Tunis, Tunisia, on Saturday, November 9, 2025.
In her remarks after her emergence, Atanda, who is the Senior Special Assistant to Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu on Establishments and Training, as well as the Lagos State Coordinator -AUDA-NEPAD/Governance, dedicated the honour to the entire members of JCI Nigeria, especially members of the 2025 JCI Nigeria Executives, for their commitment to excellence and teamwork.
“This is indeed a very proud moment for me and for JCI Nigeria, we made history today, our ELV8 theme of rising together for a sustainable future, redefining leadership and inspiring others to lead with purpose paid off,” she said.
“When I took over the mantle of leadership of JCI Nigeria in January 2025, I made a pledge to inspire transformational change for the organisation by mobilising Nigeria’s youth, fostering community development, and positioning it as a leader in social impact both locally and globally, and I am glad we have been able to surpass our own expectations,” she added.
Additionally, during the World Congress, JCI Nigeria’s National President, Oluwatoyin Atanda, received the Certificate of Appreciation on behalf of JCI Nigeria, in recognition of the organisation’s exceptional Global Impact Leadership and contribution to the 2025 JCI Impact Drive.
This honour celebrates Nigeria’s outstanding commitment to advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs) and shaping the 2025 JCI Impact Report —a testament to the passion, innovation, and dedication of every JCI Nigeria member working to create positive change across communities.
Oluwatoyin Atanda has been a long-standing member of JCI Nigeria since 2009, consistently demonstrating her ability to deliver results through a detailed, values-driven approach. Over the years, she has earned widespread admiration for her strong work ethic and unwavering dedication to empowering young leaders across Nigeria.
