Outstanding Nigerian Women Honored with Prestigious Leadership Awards

The Yellow Ball and Honours event, organized by Accolade Dynamics Ltd, brought together esteemed dignitaries from the public and private sectors to celebrate the remarkable contributions of Nigerian women in governance, public service, entrepreneurship, and community development.

Held in Abuja, the ceremony recognized the invaluable roles of women who have made meaningful impacts on Nigeria and Africa. Award recipients included notable figures such as Folashade Tinubu-Ojo, Mrs. Regina Akume, veteran actress Ndidi Obi, and Minister of Women Affairs, Hajiya Imaan Sulaiman-Ibrahim.

Minister Imaan Sulaiman-Ibrahim emphasized the growing influence of women across various sectors, reiterating the current administration’s commitment to promoting inclusive leadership and closing gender gaps. “When you dream big, big things happen. We must continue to celebrate excellence and contribute meaningfully to national development,” she stated.

Regina Akume, wife of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, expressed gratitude for the recognition and advised Nigerian youth to pursue education, skills, and self-reliance. “Learn a trade if you can’t find a job. There’s so much you can do with your hands. Be creative and build a life of dignity,” she urged.

Accolade Dynamics Ltd managing director, Doofan Chizaram Tor, highlighted the importance of honoring individuals who have built communities through coaching, skills training, and leadership. She encouraged women to embrace lifelong learning, saying, “Build your intelligence. Read books. You can be both brains and beauty. Keep pushing forward—nothing is impossible.”

The event served as a testament to the power of women’s leadership and the impact of their contributions to national progress.
