One of
Nigeria’s funny men, Francis Agoda, popularly referred to as I Go Dye has been named
a United Nations Millennium Development Goal Ambassador. The initiative is to
recognize individuals who have championed and enhanced through their work the
overall development of humanity, based on selfless services, creativity and
compassion towards human development.
Receiving
the award, the comedian said, “I feel honoured
with this honour, but it will be more gratifying to me, when I will see that
our leaders create opportunities for youths to be gainfully employed. Because
as at today; millions of Africans are suffering, and faced with uncertainty.
The future seems vague and no hope in sight.
