Rev. Ayodele Ayeni, C.S.Sp., JD, PhD
Rev. Ayodele Ayeni, C.S.Sp., is a Catholic priest of the Congregation of the Holy Spirit (Spiritans)—a religious community renowned for its global commitment to education, justice, and advocacy for the marginalized. The Spiritan legal and social justice legacy traces back to the Congregation’s founder, François Claude Poullart des Places (1679–1709), himself a trained lawyer devoted to the defense of the poor and voiceless.
Carrying forward that same heritage, Rev. Ayeni’s vocation bridges faith, law, and service. As both a barrister and solicitor in Canada, he devotes his practice to immigration and refugee law, offering compassionate representation to newcomers and refugees navigating Canada’s legal system. His work often includes pro bono services for clients unable to afford counsel—reflecting his belief that justice is not a privilege but a right rooted in human dignity.
