It is a fact of life that those who did not have the privilege to get to meet him are blessed to meet him through many of us. The impact of the Archbishop on me as an individual is unquantifiable.”

“Many times, people would ask me why I talk about the late Archbishop Benson Idahosa more than anybody. It will surprise you to know that as a young man, I was working with the Archbishop in the mail room in the Church of God Mission in Benin City. I was blessed to have worked with the late Archbishop Benson Idahosa. While working with him, I had the blessing and benefit of seeing the Archbishop passed by my table everyday to his office,” he said.

In appreciation, the visitor of the university, Archbishop Margaret Idahosa expressed gratitude to the awardee noting that the university’s resolution to honour him was quintessentially, as an illustrious son whose remarkable accomplishments and impacts have positively changed many lives across the globe.
