The Professor who is a lecturer at the Obafemi Awolowo University (which she had joined in 1982 as an Assistant Lecturer) believes Nigeria needs a change – and that someone ‘ordinary’, an everyday citizen of the country very much can do be head of the nation.
When asked about her definition of true leadership, Sonaiya said; 'True leadership is the ability to inspire, to inspire by example, by the power of your own personal discipline, your personal lifestyle'.
