In conclusion, he reiterated the importance of upholding high standards and urged the awardees to lead by example in promoting excellence and productivity in their endeavours.

“Stop encouraging laziness, humouring lateness, suffering foolishness gladly, tolerating tardiness, cheering average or below par performance, celebrating mediocrity and money cuddling the beggar and defeatist mentality, but declare as my best friend says on his WhatsApp that ‘I am not here to be average but I am here to be awesome’, ladies and gentlemen, time no dey,” he told the awardees.
