The Organisers of the Nigerian Online Merit Award (NiOMA) have
announced a postponement of the event originally scheduled to hold this Friday, May 18, 2018, at the Main
Hall of Lagos Sheraton Hotel, Ikeja.
NiOMA Organising
Committee Chairman, Mr. Lanre Alabi, said in a statement issued on Tuesday that the postponement
was necessitated by the Ramaddan, which altered the plans of some of the key
personalities expected to grace the event.
“We
sincerely regret any inconveniences which this development may cause our
esteemed awardees and guests. The event will now take place after the Ramaddan,
at a date to be made public in due course,” Mr. Alabi said.
He
restated that Honourable Minister for Communications, Barr. Adebayo Shittu, and
Africa’s Serial Digital Entrepreneur, Leo Stan Ekeh, will headline the event
while former Executive Vice Chairman of the Nigerian Communications Commission
(NCC), Dr. Ernest Ndukwe, would serve as chairman.
The
occasion, according to the NiOMA Organising Committee Chairman, “will be used
to X-ray topical ICT issues facing the nation. It will be a grand one as it
will attract senior executives, top government functionaries, industry leaders,
market analysts, professional groups and diverse economy sectoral leaders,
among others.”
A
brainchild of Nigeria’s leading daily online newspaper, News Express
Nigeria (newsexpressngr.com), NiOMA is designed to
celebrate outstanding individuals and corporates driving the Nigerian online
revolution.
