The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) is taking its toll on several human endeavours by adding digital values and virtues to the societal ecosystem. The vast impacts of digitization are not limited to communication, aviation, health, the public sector, the economy, defence, and education (Okunlola et al., 2024). The 4IR signifies the era of digital technologies’ convergence involving physical, biological, and social systems, fundamentally altering how we live, work, and learn (Datta, 2023). The 4IR has changed pedagogical modes across the globe. Traditional leadership styles are believed to be incapable of effectively addressing the opportunities and challenges brought about by the 4IR
