Thank you Lord
Not sure I will ever get over this day
Few days ago, someone asked me why I love doing what I do, and I proudly replied, “because my work offers me the ability to tell our own stories in an authentic manner and with no shame
Today was amazing( still)
I hope we can all be inspired, reset our mind and help reinvent the society together.
Also, seeing myself next to Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie was in itself a dream come true.
Thank you so much God and the entire team at BBC for this.
Together, we will change the world. SHE ADDED.
