Monday, December 02, 2013Omoba
A Nigerian, Adeyemi Michael, has won the
prestigious Grierson British Documentary Award in London.
The 28 year-old man, based in London, attracted
global attention, this time, not for a crime, but for an outstanding
achievement recorded with a true life story of a young Nigerian British based
boy named Sodiq now in jail for murder.
Accepting the award, an excited Adeyemi expressed
happiness for the breakthrough that had brought him into the global news scene
for the right reasons.
“I am pleased to be a Nigerian,” he told Channels
Television’s correspondent in London, Doris Okenwa.
He urged young people to pursue their dreams following the right path and insisted that “the grass was not always greener outside one’s home country.”
