The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Seyi was awarded at the grand finale held on Sunday. He would also join ONE at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).

His prize was handed to him by Bisola Aiyeola, runner-up of BBnaija season two and ONE ambassador. She was accompanied by fellow ambassador, Waje Iruobe and Sarah Amaka, Country Director.

NAN reports that in season two, Bisola’s campaign for girl-child education was the winning campaign for the season and she represented Nigeria at the UNGA.

For this season, The Pepper Dem Gang was tasked with creating awareness for standard health care in Nigeria.

To aid the preparation for the task, Country Director, Amaka, explained the importance of citizens participation in solving societal problems and urged them to think outside the box.

Seyi presented ideas that revolved around citizen participation, government support and proper aid to resolve the health care issues in Nigeria.

NAN reports that the lights in the BBNaija has been put off, with Mercy and Mike being led to the stage for the final bow.

goaldynboy:
When you can't be competitive, your lazy ass resort to tribalism!!

Tell me apart from politics (which was usurped by northern military and the constitution skewed for them to possess political power) which other facet of life can you beat an Igbo man?!!

Look at the bragging of this fool

The Igbo race as whole is below Yoruba in term of achievement.

Chinua Achebe died knowing he was below Wole Soyinka

A Yoruba was the first African to win a Nobel Laurette in Literature.

A Yoruba was the first African to win a Pulitzer in Journalism.

Yoruba is the only tribe with Grammy Award winners in Nigeria.

The second Richest black man is a Yoruba man.

The Second Richest woman in Africa is a Yoruba woman.


When you are celebrating Mercy as a BBN winner and another achievement for the low self esteem Igbo race even though she was not only voted for by Igbo, Yoruba are celebrating winning a world title in UFC that put Yoruba, Nigeria and Africa on the map.

These are achievements the Igbo race may never achieve in the next 100 years.

Just because bragging is against our culture doesn't mean you should start saying trash against your superior.

The whole Igbo race is below Yoruba in everything.

We take advantage of shitholes and maximise opportunities. Even the worst places in the world to live like Lagos

Yet you refuse to leave Lagos

nku5:
Compared to other regions it is not at all. Especially in terms of the indices I listed and a couple others

South East is a shithole


That's why people flee from the region like it is on war

Nothing new in all these pictures

nku5:
Who Presidency epp

Igbos are not interested in presidency. We need restructuring. Simple and short.

The north and south west that have held the presidency between themselves since independence are shitholes riddled with crime, terrorism, illiteracy and poor quality of life.

Edwin Clark should not use Igbos to be popular now biko. Same Edwin Clark we heard fought against Peter Odili becoming President in 2007 because he was Igbo

So South East is not a shithole?

HBB1:
Or you meant to say a knock down?!


Your ignorance of combat sports is soooo glaring!

Oh yeah I just started watching UFC


I watched the match and Whitaker finished both rounds on the ground.

If not for the blown whistle that signal the end of the round , Isreal would have pounce on him and cause more damage

You can call it whatever you like but to me he knocked out Robert twice

HBB1:
Knocked out?

Do you know what you are saying?

Go and watched it on U tube and stop asking questions


He knocked out Robert Whittaker twice

HBB1:
Knocked out Robert twice?

Yes he knocked out Robert in the first and second round

darkelf:
I'm not a hater. Why would I hate on my country man.

They aren't in the same weight class. Its easy to understand isn't it?

That doesn't mean anything because the fight is possible and Israel can beat him

He knocked out Robert Whittaker twice

Congratulation bro

More Victory to come

darkelf:
Oga, they are not even in the same weight category.

Jones is a light heavy weight while adesanya is middle weight.

It can't happen

What do you mean by it can't happen?



You are just hater so move along

HBB1:
Ha, please don't bet o, your money go lost!

That was what you all said until he knocked out Robert twice

ola33t:
Lol, but jokes apart, Jons go wound Adesanya. Anyway, they are not even in the same weight division. But it's good to fight bigger challenges though, israel can attempt him though, but he should be more careful of Jons giving him a life injury than trying to win. My advice.

Forget that talk bro


Support Naija

Adesanya will pick Jones apart

TheWrita:
The post is not about Arthur.If you post about him,we will talk about him.Amazing how you lots bring up unrelated stuff for no reason at all.
If this is all your brain can come up with,then your case is beyond pathetic.I am sorry for your future!

No, be sorry for your own future instead because I am sure my future is brighter than yours



It was your petty brothers that are accusing Alakija of stealing their resources.

Hating on the woman because she is not from their tribe, pathetic lot.

ola33t:
Israel is so spectacular. Lots of his oyinbo fans love him because israel always deliver, him no dey fuckup. Except that he shouldn't attempt Jon Jones for now. Jones will break his bones. Jons is a beast.

Even if Jones Is a beast, . Adesanya is also another beast

The fight would be like a football match, it will be difficult to predict the outcome


But I can bet on Adesanya to pick him apart

ola33t:
Wow! This boy get juju.

Unbeaten, not like AJ.

AJ will soon get back his belt from that fat dude

Arkmanbuddy:
A good one by Israel Adesanya. Unfortunately, he fights for New Zealand.

He is still repping Naija

The are just having fun

The show is almost over

YoungLionken:
MI is far better than so-called Vector.

Viper have always been a problem right from genesis.

MI= Maturity and Intelligence.

MI is Africa's number one rapper alive.. Mode 9 is a deity...

VECTOR IS far better than M.I

But M.I have more recognition

ednut1:
not after every rain fall

It is also when it rain heavily in Lagos everywhere get flooded


It is only heavy rain fall that causes flood

Jakumo:
This is indeed how Mrs. Alakija became Africa's richest woman - by theft of national property, namely oil. That theft continues every single day, around the clock, as MORE oil is siphoned off and sold for hard currency, by Mrs. Alakija, the seamstress-turned-overnight-mogul.

The sins committed by former Nigerian military dictator, Ibrahim Babangida, will continue to impoverish Nigeria for the next 100 years, long after the Evil Genius has joined his ancestors.

She is richer than Authur Eze that they are both Into Oil

She is not into only Oil business

People have to invest in these oil well whether you like it or not


People like you keep quiet about foreign firms that are doing the same but keep hating on Nigerians that invest in the same business because they are not from your tribe.

FEGNO:
Only in Nigeria. Without any input but just mere allocation of oil block. Not the best role model IMO honest opinion

She is not into only Oil

That's why she is the richest woman in Nigeria even Richer than Authur Eze that they are both Into Oil

She is into Fashion, Real Estate and Printing Industry

franchasng:
IBB's ex girlfriend who became rich through the oil block gift IBB gifted her for free while Niger Delta people wallow in poverty.


Little wonder Yorubas have sworn that Nigeria will never divide because all their so called billionaires became rich through siphoning Niger Delta crude oil, isorai


Ladies if u must do runz, do it with the big shots not with fine boy forming boxer sagging NFA boys you form Jay Z and Beyonce crazy in love with on an empty stomach, all sin na sin, if u must sin, sin big like Mommy Alakija and co

So what about Authur Eze?

ednut1:
The island is an overated slum. My friends estate where houses cost 60 to 80m

This is flood in London

Stop using every opportunity to talk trash about Nigeria

Joshmodest:
There is an adage that says " when you keep pursuing somebody , you are definitely behind him '.
Vector has always seen Abaga as a threat , he has always been scared the king of rap crown ,which he has never worn would be taken away from him ....
I am a big fan of Vector I like his metaphor's , his delivery , accent and flows .But when we're talking about the king of rap the new Rap god , it has to be M.I in terms of awards ,Songs streaming, international recognition ,popularity and hit songs , the numbers are there for all to see ...
Mi took the rap game mainstream , and ever since he took a break , no one has been able to take his seat not even Vector !
The last big thing that came from rap music was " You rappers should fix up your lives " M.I still did that sh*t ....Vector has dropped a whole lot since then , and still nobady's heard of it ...
M.i gave rise to whole lot of rappers and other artist...Jesse jagz , ice Prince , loose cannon , Blaqbonez ,Brymo , Nonso amadi , Koker , dice ailes , Ckay, Brainee etc ....
Tell me which Vector's rap song is as big as chairman , Undisputed champion , One naira , fast money fast cars , Money , Human being ,Crowd mentality ...
Vector is a great rapper , but aside mode 9, M.I Abaga is the greatest rapper of all time !!

M.I is the one gunning for Vector's Job

You don't become a friend with someone that is trying to steal your Job.

And who gave M.I the authority to talk shit about other Rappers In Nigeria?

It was M. I that started the Diss

UdyOgwoUde:
At least man dey chop trice a day during the corruption era. Cost of leaving was affordable.

Typical African mentality

-UK-based Nigerian professor of public international law, Dapo Akande, has been honoured with a portrait at St Peter’s College, Oxford University


- Akande will be the first black professor to stand gallantly in the halls of the college located in the prestigious and current world's number one university

- The 46-year-old educator has spent most of his adult life lecturing at great institutions in the United Kingdom

Professor of public international law, Dapo Akande, has been honoured with a portrait at St. Peter’s College in Oxford University, United Kingdom, making him the first black professor to be bestowed such an honour in the college of the prestigious university.

Akande who is Yamani fellow at St Peter's College and co-director of the Oxford Institute for Ethics, Law and Armed Conflict (ELAC) has spent most of his adult life as an educator. He started as a part-time lecturer at London School of Economics and then at Christ's College and Wolfson College, Cambridge from 1994 to 1998.



From 1998 to 2004, Akande made giant strides as he was a lecturer in law at the University of Nottingham School of Law and University of Durham. He then moved on to University of Miami School of Law till 2009, when he left for Yale Law School as a visiting associate professor and Robinna Foundation International Fellow.

Not only is he a remarkable educator, he has advised states and international organisations on matters of international law as well as advised and assisted counsel, provided expert opinions in cases before the International Court of Justice, the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, international arbitral tribunals, WTO and NAFTA Dispute Settlement Panels as well as cases in England and the United States of America.


Little wonder that Akande, who is currently a professor of public international law at the Blavatnik School of Government, was nominated alongside two other colleagues for teaching awards in 2018. The 46-year-old professor was nominated under the most acclaimed lecturer category.


Read what Facebook user Yomi Layinka had to say about the brilliant educator below:


The portrait was created by Catherine Goodman, artistic director of the Royal Drawing School, England.

Interestingly, Akande is an apple who did not fall far from its tree. His father is emeritus Professor Ebenezer Oluwole Akande, who was the first Chief Medical Director of the University College of Hospital, Ibadan, in 1978 to 1984 and former dean of the faculty of medicine at University of Ibadan.

Indeed, the Akandes have one hell of a legacy.

xamuel17:
who on earth would want his child to be an agbero .... learning a Handwork is much more productive then being an agbero ....what future does being a tout hold for anyone?

What are you even saying?

Who are you to judge others and talk about what is more productive ?

What have you personally achieved in your life?

You are not in any position to judge others.
