Prince Sadoluwa "Dolu" Opoola Lanlehin (born October 23, 1987) is a Nigerian prince. He is thought to be the successor the throne in Lagos, Nigeria and next in line to become Oba (King).

Family History

Lanlehin was born in the southern city of Lagos, Nigeria. Lanlehin's grandfather Chief S. O. Lanlehin[1] was a major Chieftan in Ibadan and a founding leader of the Ibadan Peoples Party.[2]

Formal Education

Sadoluwa Lanlehin attended Loyola Jesuit College, a prominent Jesuit boarding school in the current-day capital Abuja.[3] Lanlehin attended university abroad at the University of Notre Dame in the United States, where he studied Civil Engineering.

Latvian Ambassadorship

During his undergraduate education at the University of Notre Dame, Lanlehin formed a close friendship with Christopher Doughty, nephew of Latvian Secretary of State Andris Teikmanis. In recent years Lanlehin has worked toward fostering Latvian-Nigerian relations, and after visiting Latvia and meeting Teikmanis, helped organize a Latvian trade mission to Nigeria that resulted in a pledge toward greater trade partnership between the two countries[4].
