He said, “I am deeply honored to have been selected as the laureate to accept this award as the ‘Icon of the Year’ by Stakerrs.

“I think this is real success. And today’s award is the symbol of that success.
“I am very pleased to have received this award and this would surely serve as a boost to my career.
“Thank for your choice and for your trust in me. I will do my best to justify your trust and contribute to the growth of the society.
As the French man would say, “Le meilleur est à venire.” (The best is yet to come).
Others at the event included: football legend, John Fashanu, music legend, Majek Fashek, teen singer, Ozzybosco, nollywood sweetheart, Eucheria Anuobi and other prominent Nigerians.
