“The Governing Board finds you worthy for this honour, and I have no doubt in my mind that you deserve this award after listening to your citations.

“You are indeed outstanding. When I listened to the citation of Ilori Ayotola Deborah, I was really proud of a young beautiful lady who is selfless and committed to duty.

“The administration will therefore continue to appreciate those who have worked harder to promote the unity of this country.

“The period of youth service, ushers you into a completely new environment, new culture, new faces to cohabit with and understand and learn from each other.

“We are waiting for your response because you must make FCT proud and I will be the happiest person to see you among those that will be receiving the presidential award.
