Peter Adewale Jegede is a museum curator and cultural heritage researcher based in Nigeria. He currently serves as a consultant curator to the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL). He is also pursuing a doctoral degree in Geoarchaeology at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Nigeria; focusing on the environmental and geochemical assessment of ancient human activities in selected archaeological sites in southwest Nigeria. Over the past thirteen years, he has worked extensively across Nigeria’s arts, culture and heritage sectors as a permanent curator, museum consultant and international research collaborator. Most notably, he was part of the curatorial team at the John Randle Centre for Yoruba Culture and History in Lagos, where he assisted in preserving and interpreting Yoruba material culture through its exhibition commissioned by President Muhammadu Buhari in 2022. His restitution work at Open Restitution Africa (ORA) is deeply informed by his curatorial background and current research interests and aligns closely with his commitment to Nigeria’s cultural patrimony. His goal is to contribute meaningfully to the understanding of how communities engage with their displaced heritage and to support responsible and ethical approaches to cultural restitution.
