Former presidential aide, Reno Omokiri has given vivid reasons why the images of Dr. Okonjo Iweala, Burna Boy, and Wizkid should be placed on Nigerian airports.
He took to his social media account to advocate for this decision he termed “wise”. In his own words, we should use these national treasures to promote Nigeria.
Dr. Okonji Iweala recently resumed office as the DG of the world trade Organization (WTO) making her the first female and first African head of the global trade body.
Nigeria Afrobeats stars BurnaBoy and Wizkid both won awards at the 63rd edition of the Grammy Awards in different nominated categories.
Burna Boy, whose real name is Damini Ogulu, won the Best “Global Music Album category” with his album, Twice as Tall.
While Wizkid also won a Grammy for his collaborative effort with Beyonce on the Lion King.
On his Twitter page, he tweeted;
”If we are a wise nation, we should use these national treasures (@NOIweala, @BurnaBoy, and @wizkidayo) to promote Nigeria. We should have their images on our airports to welcome foreigners to Nigeria, and on our stamps, to project the Nigerian Dream”.
