We celebrate everything in Nigeria,
From taking breakfast down to sex.

Awards are even given for Owning an iPhone in Nigeria.

millions of entrepreneurs
millions of awards
millions of Africans and Nigeria living in poverty..

Good news

Every persons who dared ventured out oblivion to where his/her next pay cheque might come from deserves to be celebrated. The most advanced economy of the world has its economy hedged and borne by MSMEs, they are the backbone and the true measure of the GDP of every country. Congratulations to both winners and nominees

lol, if it was left for me no body would be given or receiving awards in Nigeria of all places.

I remember when i was in University i never went for those useless dinner nights even though they tell me forehand i would be getting awards.

To me Nigeria is a mess, we are not sober about it when we celebrate mediocrity or the people who outrightly put us were we are

Because the Awards are for the highest bidder and not by merits. Serious business men and politicans hardly win this useless award, because they will tell the organizers to stop disturbing them.
How many awards has Dangote, Otedola, etc won this year And yet unknown corrupt individual keep winning

David Agu, the guy is going places. I can also see Funke Kehinde there. Congrats to them.
