“It took us by surprise because we didn’t lobby for it, you did your underground work and that makes the award, most cherished, acceptable and most source of encouragement, awards of this nature don’t come cheap especially coming from the media which is generally accepted as the conscience of the society, the public relied on the media for enlightenment, education and information”.
