As the Commonwealth celebrates The Queen’s 90th birthday, this year’s Award winners, including Olanrewaju Adeloye, Aladipupo Ajiroba and Olumide Femi Makanjuola, all aged between 18 and 29 have been recognised by The Queen for taking the lead in transforming the lives of others and making a lasting difference in their communities. As a Queen’s Young Leader, they will be representing Nigeria as they join winners from 45 different Commonwealth countries in London for five days of high-level engagements, all designed to help them further their life-changing work.
Selected from a competitive process where thousands of young people from all over the Commonwealth applied to be a Queen’s Young Leader, Olanrewaju Adeloye said: “I am so happy to be a recipient of The Queen’s Young Leaders Award. To be recognised for my work and be presented with an Award by Her Majesty The Queen at Buckingham Palace is such a huge honour. I can’t wait to meet all the other winners in London and get involved in all the exciting activities that are taking place throughout the week.”

This is marginalisation by the British Monarchy, is the Queen not aware of the Federal Character principle? This must be investigated. We will not take it!!!
On a serious note the most important thing is that THEY ARE ALL NIGERIANS.

The biafrans will have heart attack over this. while Their own people are landlords in Vietnam and asian jails, the yoruba's are attaining greater heights. Proudly oduduwa

Proudly Yoruba.

Everywhere we are, we transform the environment for the better. If only we are allowed to transform Nigeria. No wonder all the other tribes come to Lagos to have a taste of Yoruba wisdom.
