Abraham Aderibigbe Adesanya (July 24, 1922 in Ijebu Igbo - 27 April 2008) was a Nigerian politician, lawyer, activist, welfarist, aristocrat and liberal progressive.

Later, Adesanya under the auspices of Afenifere and the Yoruba council of Elders, alongside others led a congress of Yoruba elder-statesmen through a congress that rose to pronounce that the convocation of a constitutional conference, where new confederating terms would be determined for the country, was inevitable for the good of Nigerians.

On the leadership front, his Yoruba and Afenifere leaderships were heavily burdened by contentions from his opponents’ tiny quarters, but he left no one of them in doubt that he was truly in charge with the strong character of honesty and consistency as-well-as pragmatic approach he often adopted in handling issues.
