Monday, 5 December 2022

Thirty Northern youngsters, all under age 30, have been honoured by Arewa Agenda in collaboration with Daily Nigerian for their success in innovation, arts, technology, sports, entertainment, activism, humanitarian work, social media impact, etc.

Tagged ’30 Under 30 Arewa Stars’, the maiden award ceremony organized by Image Merchants Promotion Limited (IMPR), publishers of PRNigeria and other titles, was held in Kano on Saturday.
