Ola Awakan, a name synonymous with advocacy and excellence, has once again claimed a prestigious accolade – the Lefties Order of Constantine Award. This recognition comes hot on the heels of a recent honor from Abuja’s art and theatre community. Awakan’s resolute dedication to championing the rights of left-handers and ambidextrous individuals in Nigeria has earned him this commendation.

The event, a grand affair at Abuja’s international conference centre, marked the 5th anniversary of a group’s formation and the 2023 International Left-handers Day. Politicians, officials, and a diverse crowd, including left-handers and ambidextrous individuals, gathered to celebrate Awakan’s efforts.

Mrs. Adesola Oyinloye-Ndu, the force behind the Lefties and Ambidextrous Care Initiative, emphasized Awakan’s continuous commitment since the initiative’s inception five years ago.

Awakan, a journalist and dramatist, shared a personal connection to the cause, as his father and daughter are left-handers. He called for inclusive infrastructure and products, rejecting the idea of changing handedness and highlighting the regrets faced by those who have tried.

The event’s theme, “Let the Left-handers Breathe,” encapsulates the celebration’s spirit: fostering an environment where diversity thrives and the rights of left-handers and ambidextrous individuals are upheld.

Awakan’s journey isn’t just his own; it symbolizes resilience, advocacy, and a push for inclusivity. His accolades are more than personal achievements; they symbolize a commitment to change that inspires generations. Ola Awakan’s legacy will continue to inspire progress and celebrate the beauty of diversity.
