Kaduna, North-West, Nigeria<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The National Association of Nigeria\u00a0 University Students (NANUS) has awarded a Kaduna based Journalist, Mr. Isaiah Benjamin an award of excellence for distinguishing himself professionally and in humanitarian services.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The event which took place at the Nigeria Union of Journalists Secretariat Kaduna was witnessed by members who were there to felicitate with him on his success.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
According to the spokesman of the group, Senate President Lawal Abdulhafiz, the award is in recognition of his hardwork, professionalism, excellence in his educational pursuit, and stewardship as Kaduna state SWAN, Chairman. People he said succeed because they are determined to.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
ln its citation, the association described comrade Isaiah Benjamin as ‘a golden fish’; a rare and exceptional species with the burning passion to render selfless service whenever the situation arises.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“His passion to render selfless service wherever he finds himself is a principle fact that continues to uphold him in life.<\/div>\n
His contribution to the youth and humanity cannot be overemphasized. He is a beacon of hope for the youth. You are a golden fish and a golden fish has no hiding place.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Still recognizing his contributions,<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
“We are not giving you this award today because you are Isaiah Benjamin, we are giving you because of the work you have done.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
We have seen your work as Chairman, Sports Writers Association, and your contribution to the society.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Today, we are awarding you with “Icon of Humanitarian Service”.<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Vice President, (NANUS) Comrade Adamu Tanko presented the Award on behalf of the association.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In his words of appreciation, Mr. Benjamin thanked the association and colleagues who were there to grace the occasion. The award he said was a surprise to him because he never met any of them before.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“l sincerely thank the National Association of Nigerian Students for this honour and also thank my senior colleagues for being part of the ceremony. l must confess, l am not in the knowledge of this award. I have never met any one of them before. This award l must say has taken me by surprise. Be as it may, this shows that whatever we do in life, we are being noticed by people.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Whatever must have merited me this award, l assure you that l will continue to exhibit it.<\/div>\n
In whatever little way, l will\u00a0 continue to contribute to the survival of union and students unionism.” He added.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Speaking on behalf of his colleagues, one of the veteran journalists, comrade Sunday lbrahim Mordecai thanked the group for recognizing one of our own. Mordecai described the award as a pleasant surprise while assuring the recepient’s ability to make the award worthwhile.<\/div>\n
Advising the youth, he said,<\/div>\n
“You must begin to think of entreprenualship. That is the best thing to do now. Some of us have children who are graduates and we are still feeding them.<\/div>\n
“It is not too much to learn tailoring, it is not too much to learn painting, not too much to learn carpentry. In fact, governor of Lagos state then, Babatunde Fashola as a seating governor sent his soon to learn capentry. Each time l remember it, l kept wondering. So, our youth must rise up to the challenge.” He encouraged.<\/div>\n
