Asked about how she felt at being honoured as the ‘Brand Influencer of the Year 2022’ she replied: “I am deeply honoured and humbled to be an example to all and sundry as to what we can achieve as people.
“When I started all I ventured into, I never thought of getting awards though, this isn’t my first award as representatives always pick awards on my behalf because I am a shy person. But, this touched me differently because it’s my first time climbing the stage, facing lots of amazing people to pick my award myself and deliver a speech.”
She added: “Whatever you are doing, do it well for your own peace of mind. Be prayerful, be passionate, and be human because you never can tell who is watching or what not. It will all make sense one day with the help of God in your businesses and we will all be achievers.”
In conclusion, she thanked the Managing Director of CityPeople Female Achievers Awards, Dr Seye Kehinde, for thoroughly going through her work and feeling it’s high time she got awarded for all she had done and continues to do.
