A young Nigerian entrepreneur and ICT specialist, Dr. Olakunle Churchill, has received the African Youth and Governance Champion Award.
The event, which was held over the weekend in Abeokuta, Ogun state during the just-concluded African Youth and Governance Conference (AYGC), had in attendance youth groups from over 35 African countries.
Speaking on the theme: "Harnessing Africa’s Demographic Dividend through Investments in Youth,” Churchill urged African youths to shun vices and work hard to become successful in life.
The 9th AYGC, which also attracted young entrepreneurs across the continent, provided a platform for the young participants to discuss topical continental and global issues regarding youth development.
Churchill, who is the Chairman of Big Church Group, was recognised for his immense contributions to entrepreneurship, agriculture and ICT.
