In recognition of his consistent presence online and impact created on Kogi social media space, social media savvy Kogi State Deputy Governor, Chief Edward Onoja, has bagged the “Kogi Hero Award” from the Management of Confluence Creative Media, organisers of Kogi Social Media Awards.

Speaking during the presentation of the Award at venue of the ceremony in Lokoja yesterday, the convener of the event Usman Dansofo Jr. said it was a meritorious award that was based on overwhelming votes from Facebook users, which favours Edward Onoja.

He said the award was to recognize those who are using the social media to improve themselves and have positive impact on the people.

In his response, Chief Edward Onoja who was represented by the Deputy chief of staff, Sunday Faleke thanked the organizers for the recognition and promised to continue to live up to the expectation of the people.

He however gave all the credits to Governor Yahaya Bello who he said gave him the opportunity to serve the people. He described the Governor as the real hero who is committed to protecting the interest of the vast majority of people and providing the needed quality leadership.

The Deputy Governor called on Kogites, especially the youths to harness the innumerable opportunities provided by social media to improve themselves into becoming worthy assets to the state. He said Kogi is a state with great potentials and only when kogites begin to talk about the positives would investors take interest in the state.

He warned that using social media to spread falsehood or negative things about the state would only give bad perception of the state to outsiders and discourage investments. An outcome that doesn’t favor anyone.
