Meet EKSU Lecturer Professor Godwin Emmanuel, The Extraordinary Scholarly

Professor Godwin Emmanuel Oyedokun, an alumnus of Ekiti State University (EKSU), stands as one of Nigeria’s most decorated scholars and multidisciplinary professionals. His career is characterized by an unprecedented collection of academic degrees and professional certifications spanning accounting, finance, law, economics, and taxation.

His professional standing is equally formidable, holding fellowships and memberships in nearly every major financial and regulatory body in Nigeria and abroad. Notable credentials include FCA (Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria), FCTI (Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria), ACIB (Chartered Institute of Bankers), and CFE (Certified Fraud Examiner).

Professor Oyedokun has held high-level directorates at the Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria (CITN) and currently serves as a Professor of Accounting & Financial Development at Lead City University, Ibadan. 

In the corporate sector, he is the co-founder of the OGE Group and a partner in several audit and forensic firms. Despite his rigorous professional schedule, he remains a devoted family man, married to Chief (Mrs.) Oluwabunmi Esther Oyedokun, with whom he has four children.

Professor Oyedokun’s trajectory from a primary school student in Ibadan to a globally recognized authority in forensic accounting and financial administration serves as a pinnacle of academic achievement in Nigeria.
