Emcee : Let's with a round of applause, welcome Oluwapelumi Awe as he comes up for his presentation  👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 I walked up with my head high and spirit charged, I went on to deliver a heart-felt speech in the presence of over 3,500 persons.  The highpoint of this circumstance is hidden in the story of how I was selected among so many persons to speak at the event in the first place On the Easter Sunday in 2018 while returning from a camp organized by Winners Chapel nationwide, I got a notification on my facebook page that my own very good friend and brother Ayodele Olumide Olawale mentioned my name on a post with the message saying '...check this out'.

While I was speaking in a class today in one of the best schools on the Island, I took note of how a young girl was looking at me intensely.

I observed her and kept speaking. After speaking for about 20 minutes, I asked the class to tell me who the person who has always scored the highest mark is. Guess who they all pointed to? They pointed to this young girl. 😊 I took a deep breathe and said silently 'I know why'. Listening - One of the rarely spoken about secrets of stars. Oluwapelumi Awe Africa's Most Creative Event Host
