Mr. Sunday Adeniyi Fehintola was the immediate past Registrar and the Secretary to the Governing Council of Oyo State College of Agriculture and Technology (OYSCATECH), Igboora.

On this day, August 7, 2020 marks his 65th birthday and retirement from active service. It is a double celebration for him as an outstanding and successful administrator who rose to the top echelon of his career.

One cannot but felicitate with this enigma, a father and grandfather who distinguished himself in his chosen career and was privileged to work directly with three Vice Chacellors namely; the Late Prof. A. M. Salau, Prof. B.B. Adeleke and Prof. M.L. Nassar at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso as well as Prof. Gbemiga Adewale, immediate past Rector, the Oyo State College of Agriculture and Technology, Igboora.

Mr. Adeniyi Fehintola is one of such individuals that can never be forgotten in the history of Oyo State College of Agriculture and Technology, Igboora as he was among the pre-establishment committee that worked towards the emergence of the fourteen year old Oyo State College of Agriculture and Technology, Igboora.

The committee worked round the clock even into the dead of the nights before we could have this great citadel of learning called OYSCATECH, Igboora. The products of the institution who are doing the institution proud and the successes that the institution has recorded in terms of technological and agricultural advancement are living testimonies of the notable icons who worked towards the establishment and sustenance of Oyo State College of Agriculture and Technology, Igboora.
