Check out the nominees list for the Prestige Nigeria Education Awards 2019 (#PNEA3.0)

The organizers of the Prestige Nigeria Education Awards (PNEA) have announced the nominees for the 2019 edition of the awards which is themed “Creative Disruption” and called on the general public to start voting for the deserving candidates in various award categories.

It is time to celebrate and appreciate schools, individuals, organizations, institutions and brands that have through diligence, commitment and hard work achieved a feat worthy of reward and/or has contributed to the development of Education in Nigeria.

Debo Olowu, the Project Director and founder of Prestige Nigeria Education Awards, stated that there are new changes to the way the awards categories are structured this year.

“This year, we separated the award categories into academic and non-academic categories. We believe education goes beyond the four walls of learning and it is everybody’s business because the state of a nation’s education is the reflection of the nation’s future. Education is critical in ensuring any nation’s success.”

Debo said the educational sector is the bedrock of the Nigerian economy and a salient industry servicing every sector. He added that the prestige awards is a call for us to treasure, bestow honor and recognition to bring about vibrancy, advancement and a spirit of competition to our educational sector by recognizing and rewarding those doing well in and for this sector. He said “when people are recognized for their efforts, they will also continue in their desire to excel and do more.”

Voting have started and will end on Sunday 10th of November 2019. To see the list of the nominees and vote, visit https://awards.prestigenigeria.com. The nominees profile will be available on https://edu.prestigenigeria.com
