Due him, the celebration which will run for the next couple of months has started already with the unveiling of the 70th anniversary logo and theme.
He said activities lined up to mark the anniversary will showcase the nobility of the organisation, its enduring ethos, and its continuous quest to create a just society in Nigeria.
Owoaje also noted that 70 years ago, seven passionate young and patriotic Nigerian undergraduates, namely – Wole Soyinka, Ralph Opara, Nathaniel Oyelola, Pius Oleghe, Olumuyiwa Awe, Ikpehare Aig-Imoukhuede and Slyvanus Egbuche, at the University College Ibadan, now University of Ibadan, took a giant revolutionary leap towards greatness and etched their names in the sands of time by standing up to obnoxious conventions to form the Pyrates Confraternity.
“They laid a veritable foundation for discipline, firmness, integrity, and an enviable commitment to humanitarian service turning it into a formidable paramilitary agency".
