A Nigerian professional, Mr. Atta Onoja, has received a Congressional Proclamation from the United States House of Representatives in recognition of his contributions to international trade, economic cooperation and diaspora engagement. GeographicReference

The honour, conferred by U.S. Congressman Hakeem Jeffries, was presented during the Guyana Independence Celebration Committee of New York’s commemoration of Guyana’s 60th Independence Anniversary.

According to a statement, the proclamation recognised Onoja’s more than two decades of professional experience across the shipping, marketing, distribution and energy sectors, as well as his efforts in strengthening commercial ties between Africa, the Caribbean and the United States.

The citation also acknowledged his role and his leadership of the African Caribbean Chamber of Trade, Commerce and Industry (ACCTCI), through which he has promoted collaboration among governments, businesses and institutions.


The statement noted that the recognition reflects the growing global impact of Nigerians who are contributing to international partnerships through enterprise, innovation and institutional leadership.

Responding to the honour, Onoja dedicated the recognition to Nigerians making positive contributions across the world.

“I accept this recognition with deep humility. It is also a reminder that Nigerians have the capacity to build institutions, create opportunities and strengthen relationships that extend far beyond our borders. I hope this inspires more young professionals to believe that excellence and service remain the most enduring pathways to global impact,” he said.

The statement added that the award underscored the increasing role of private sector leaders in complementing diplomatic efforts by promoting investment, encouraging cross-border collaboration and creating new opportunities for businesses and communities.

It further noted that Onoja’s recognition serves as an example of how sustained professional excellence and commitment to service can earn international acclaim while enhancing Nigeria’s image on the global stage.

this is why humility is good,I can remember when the whites wanted to take this guy out of business the first time,I was one of those who meet with musa then in Canada shortly before he was appointed in Nigeria then I meet with the then aviation minister ,i urged them to assist this guy because he was all nigeria had when it came to the international leg,they refused in the beginning because of tribal politics but musa said when he gets to know Nigeria he would speak with him and decide from there.he kept his word and they became friends,it was the northern cabal that defended oyema with there western connections.as soon as the rope was off oyema neck he began his display of arrogance,insulting everybody that helped him even calling a revered Northern emir his boy.in my mind i said his fall was eminent,those who helped him called me and said look at who you where beging for,I told them I didn't know him that much but what ever they decided as pay back let him have it,they made a request of me,I granted it on the spot hence why he sees hell in my region after spending money like a mad man,since he thinks money is his god.now the west is back for him,I wonder who will save him now,that money you are making noise will soon be gone.in this life as I grow I have learnt,just be humble and you will be fine.

yet we treat there citizens like kings in Nigeria,that is what religion has caused.good for her,no African should visit Dubai

speak about things you understand and learn that is how you grow.hyatt is a management franchise definitely not the owners of the hotel,same as Sheraton,Hilton,Pegasus,hotel inn etc

GreyWolf01:
Ambode does not own Hyatt.

Please get your facts right.

Hyatt is a global chain of luxury hotels.

Make una dey use una heads.

listen to yourself,Poverty mind speaking ,I will answer your question with a question,name one company that is government own that is functioning or making profit.i am waiting just one.pikin born in 1991 they call him papa mate childish.a foolish generation

Yemmysworld91:
You should be the one to free yourself of mental slavery. Ask yourself why indigenous owned cement, sugar companies was sold to Dangote, or you not aware that Nigeria owned those companies?
How was Dangote solely able to build a refinery and Nigeria as a whole can't!!!. I don't have issues with Dangote but you just drew unnecessary assumptions from my opinion. Grow up! And learn to argue without insults. Don't bother to respond cos i won't respond to any mention from a childish fellow like you again.

dangote is the greatest thing ever to happen to Nigeria,if not for him both hands and legs of this country would have been tired to importation,there by ensuring we are slaves to foreign vices.i advice you to go and free yourself from mental slavery

Yemmysworld91:
On a norms i do ignore people like you but i just have to respond. I wish you know me in person to know i am one of the true Nigerians around. I've gone through what i typed and i wonder how tribalism crawled in. Dangote is not our helper! He is one of the problems with Nigeria. Argue with yourself.
Anyways, if i tell you what i know about Dangote cement production ehn, I'm talking of inside info. But i don't engage in unnecessary banters here. I'm hoping we get his fuel cheaper though. Cheers

rubbish talk ,trablism makes us hate even our helper.dangote cement is cheaper than any cement in the world,quality against price.you can use Google,it is your friend.any importer after buying must add shipping cost plus taxes plus profit before fixing price.bag of cement in America is $20 that is the cheapest at bulk price,in naira that is 36,000 naira a bag by the time you add shipping plus taxes plus profit the cheapest will be 50,000naira a bag.as we speak I know of countries begging to buy dangote cement off the nigeria market for there country because it is far cheaper.

Yemmysworld91:
I just hope the capitalist Dangote won't finish Nigerians with the pricing the same way he has been doing with cement
Last last we go dey alright

if they arrest you now,you would say they are wicked,withdraw this comment

this is an even bigger crime,if people paid for it then it is currency

[quote author=HgsMediaPlus post=131441459][/quote]

not if ,it is already adopted into western definition of human right.then if you look at the clauses where lgbtq use to be it was replaced with the word modern best practice which equally means lgbtq.that Ambassador must be recalled immediately,the minister was not aware and all who took part in this signing need to be investigated for treason same as the eco money.what is going on is scary.people have spent there life's in the fielding fighting for the future of this country.some idiots in the name of presidents boys are there signing us into all kinds of slavery contract

immortalcrown:
Since the issue of the agreement began to trend, I have not commented on it. I don't take a stand on something I do not understand. I try my best to avoid saying what I cannot defend. Even with this very article, I am yet to understand the agreement.

This sounds vague. Who decides human rights? Can human rights vary according to countries? If LGBTQ is later adopted into human rights, doesn't the signed agreement force the member countries to legalize LGBTQ?

These are questions, not claims. Answer the questions if you can. If you choose to treat the questions as claims, you are obviously delusional and sentimental.

I do not debate the ignorant

Okoroawusa:
You are confused. Nigeria and Ghana has always been at fore front of the actualisation of an ECOWAS common currency. It has been France putting spanner on the wheels of progress through their proxies in the francophone countries. Don't swallow everything you hear on that your Obidients Whatsapp group.

of course it has and Nigeria has always refused to sign up to it hence the reason why it has never worked out.it is a plan for forgien element to control Nigerias moneity policy ,to be specific France has been trying to use that mode to Control Nigerians monetary policy.so I do not know if it is the many trips tinubu has been making to France or his boys have gone crazy but Nigeria is not for sale and nobody will take us into slavery.
I mean who are they consulting with?or do they think the leaders before them that refused to sign on to all this agreements where foolish?

Okoroawusa:
ECOWAS common currency that has been on the front burner since 1975 is a slavery contact? Have you heard of WAUA ? Please stop making Obidients sound stupid.

what is going on,tinubus boys are just signing us unto every slavery contract that Nigerian policy makers have rejected for years,imagine appointing rewan to the economic council,a man that has no business to his name yet has preached devaluation of the currency.wike is a local boy but he is doing better than all the foreign trained minister.the president has to control his boys the direction they are taking the country,we nolonger understand.let us be clear we do not want to be slaves

surely them never born you when those people they play ball hence what will make you think osimhen has achieved anything.JJ OKocha took Bolton from champions league to 4th in premiership.i advance you study the past so you will be better guaded.victor hasnt achieved much,I would argue that his career is over before it startered,his Biggest mistake was not going to Saudi when the big money came calling

001Lagos:
All this coach no dey respect themselves . They think by being former eagles player automatically makes them a legend .

In my opinion, I think the only legend in the super eagles right now is Victor osimhen . Dude single handedly gave his club side Napoli SERIA A cup after about 34yrs. That's what no eagle player has ever done.

I think Victor osimhen is far greater than finding george

even though I know this is a propaganda post but you all need to stop deceiving yourselves,even with the worst kind of rigging,democratic party can't win that election except they want to burn down there country,they lost the day they raided trumps house and since then they have just been going down the rabbit whole,the court case has given Trump sympathy votes and dug in his followers.it was a mess democrats is like pdp everything is about share the money,inspite of all there money they have no strategist,just doing emotional things rather than logical once.

HISSCRIBE1995:
With the recent developement from the US presidential debate it is very likely that Joe might not be on the ballot against Trump.
although it is still possible for Biden to win yet that insinnuation is not certain.

Joe steping down would not be just a strategy for the democrat to win but a chance for the prophecy of Kamala Harris becoming POTUS getting fullfiled.

i believe Joe's shortcoming MIGHT be delibrately orchestrated to pave way for Harris who is likely to become the first US female president.

Kamala becoming the President of the united state now or later is prophetic and would reshape international politics.

there must be something in my eyes is that 2012 I see in 2024,you brought unverified data from 12 years ago?next time put in your statement 12 years ago imo state produced nearly more graduate than north west or north east

mrvitalis:
Please do the maths

Come up with your own data too
Ok from this below it's obviously that IMO start nearly produced more graduates than North West and north East

imo state produce more graduate than north west and north east combine?that statement is a reckless lie made out of the pit of ipob tribalism,you are no different from who you are trying to accuse

mrvitalis:
Tribalism entered Nigeria army as far back as 1970s

Honestly I look at our military I shake my heads... The poor training they received shown in every Posible way

You have a military where the side of nigeria that performs well in education suddenly fails in the army while the region with less graduate than IMO state becomes majority[b] ( yes IMO state produce more graduate than North West and North East combined) [/b]

So you need anyone to tell u there is nepotism?

When you promote someone based on nepotism people he trains would be badly trained...

Then you use nepotism to select among the worse or those poorly trained to train the next set...
Then set the worse trained of that set to command the next set.. Do this for 50 years and you have Nigerian Army

quote me ,no be your parents be the issue.you need to think well about what you are doing,childless marriage no be beans oh,as you get older the women become more misrable in some cases devilish oh.plus unhappiness will nearly kill you as you see other peoples kids.
my advice if you do not have any medical condition yourself,run away now you can

Exceptional300:
There’s this girl I have been dating for a couple of months now, we are planning on settling down soon. She was diagnosed with PCOS couple of years ago before I met her, had a surgery and one of her ovaries were removed. Though she still ovulates and sees her period, I am kind of worried if there will be any issues in the future.
My parents doesn’t know about her surgery yet. Should I tell them about it?

no it is not,infact that will be the end of bokoharam,because we all know bokoharam is a covert operation funded by westerners aka black........ those who know ,know

Pepperdemisback:

Dele grounded all their family to miss their flight until they dropped the girl.The Dele is still around to deal with them again. The rubbish they did with Chioma and family till the child died, Dele didn't give room for it. That's why he was pained and sang Dele na my boy.
Dog wen get backup go face and kill lion.

I support separate rooms,I and my wife have separate rooms.the only problem in your article is that the lady isnt asking for separate rooms.she is asking for a room for herself and a joint bedroom with her husband.which is a very big red flag,that is the character of a naccisst cheater.she wants a room for herself so she can hide while at the same time sharing the husband's room so she can control and monitor.

loveoris:
Is it such a bad idea though? I mean, to actually want separate bedrooms from your husband? Maybe his room bigger, the Master bedroom to accommodate both parties but another smaller separate room for wifey....just saying.

An intending couple got into a heated argument just a few weeks before their wedding when during a conversation the wife stated that she wanted her own bedroom. The man didn't take it to heart at first assuming she was joking, but soon enough realized the pretty lady wasn't joking at all. She meant every word of it. This ensued in a huge argument that dragged on for days. Members of the family and friends even got involved at some point. I remember my dad calling to ask me how I felt about the whole situation, my answer was pretty much simple- Give the young lady what she wants.

Hear me out!!!

Firstly, the space is not an issue, its not like they need to go buy or rent another house to accommodate this arrangement. They own a house of their own that has enough rooms that nobody uses.
Secondly, her reasons are very valid, which probably would be my reasons too. We don't always want to talk, be cuddled or argue, sometimes we just need our space to think clearly and enjoy the solitude. She went ahead to say she doesn't like herself during her menstrual phase so she stays away from everyone, doesn't go to work, she is just indoor writhing in pain and consoling herself. She would like to continue with that without having to bother or lash out at her husband simply because she is in pain. She made him understand that he is only fighting it because he has been conditioned traditionally that they must have the same room. However, if he is been truthful to himself he would realize that alone times can't be bought with money, doesn't mean they don't love each other anymore, it just means there is a need for recharge.

Her other reason was she wouldn't want her siblings or very close friends to ever have a reason to step into their matrimonial bedroom, which is the husband's room.
Her last reason, very valid too, is that she is quite a clumsy person, she looks for one outfit for the day and the whole place is upside down, her husband however is very neat freak and loves everything exactly how they should be. She said she wants to have her freedom and be able to have her things in a separate room, that way her mess is out of his face.

I personally think its a great idea for a woman to have a separate room that is hers, she can decorate it to her taste, have her me times, like her own closet. Even though most of the night I will be in my husband's room cuddled up, cos what is sleep without my man. But I'd love to know the option is there for me when I need to be alone for whatever reason. Moreso, the room is not going to be out of bound to my husband, he can always come in whenever he wants, the bed will be big enough for two, just incase the HS ministers to us right there....lol

with all due respect,I think this minister is confused as to his job,his duty is to defend Nigeria and her image,but the clown seems to be working for UAE.please we need the ban there and we want emirate banned here.Nigeria does not need UAE,they need us.our money fuels there economy while they have nothing for us,no investment nothing.because Dubai is the play ground of our rich that doesn't make it in Nigerians interest

this is a political hit job,poorly planed in an election year as a last dish effort to stop a man who is going to win.it is even more stricking because all the rules where broken to achieve this,so much so that democrats have not thought of the consequences.first they have broken the rule that forbid you from going after former presidents which means obama and Biden are now open game when Trump wins,then they claimed former president can't have classified document,when biden has been found with so many as vice president which means he too will be arrested as soon as he losses,then they came with using states under party to target opponents which means when republicians win any Democrat in a republican state becomes open season.in all this hit job was poorly scripted,poorly timed and would be the final nail on democrats what would help them a little is trumps ignorance on Isreal but in total,I can openly say even with rigging democrats can't beat trump

ijebosb:
And? Manhattan is the finance home of the world. Has the top finance companies and so attracts the top finance talent. Because of that it has the top service companies there as well (law firms, it security, etc). So attracts top very educated talent there. Your argument is that those people are so stupid they are easily manipulated?

Back to the makeup of Manhatten, 86% voted for Biden, 12% voted for Trump. So in a juror of 12, if you transpose those numbers, there would be maybe 2 people who voted for Trump on that Juror. Juries need to be unanimous. You only need 1 juror for a hung jury. Here, all 12 people thought he was guilty.
Juries try to do a fair job. Trump's attorneys had the ability to get rid of jurors they didn't like. Your argument makes little sense.

yea right in New York,a democratic state,in Manhattan a county of 95% democrate voter and you expected a balance jury.the people are not as stupid as you think they are.

ijebosb:
Sympathy for? It was a jury trial. All 12 random people chosen with input from Trump's lawyers heard the evidence and found him guilty.

I hate to tell the democrats,they would loss.i am nolonger a trump fan but if you have worked on political strategy,the first thing you must know is never put your opponent in a position of becoming a sympathy Candidate because sympathy votes are organic votes
