" I do what I am doing today with excitement and pleasure because I want to be the change I would love to see in my society and the world at large. Realizing the fact that being a Millennium Fellow will put me in a better position to move and work with people of high self-esteem and determination is also appealing. More so, the privilege of meeting with people of different academic and social background and ideal is a great thing that one can afford to miss. Thus, my excitement for being part of the Millennium Fellowship program of 2020 can not be overemphasized. "
