Alabi, who disclosed that the 15th edition of the award would be held on 19th Septem­ber in Lagos, stated that the awardees were picked due to their dexterity and dedication as well as their outstanding contributions to their vari­ous fields. He said the award was ini­tially programmed towards July in Zamfara State, since Lagos has been the host since inception. “We intend to go with the winners and some selected top Journalists and Editors to tour Zamfara State as well as to inspect the state govern­ment’s projects but this was canceled due to the security challenges in the country. “Despite the new develop­ment, the glitz, glamour, and paparazzi that the award is associated with will not be taken away,” he said.
