IT WAS FUN AND PAGEANTRY AS THE AFRICAN WONDERKID “OZZYBOSCO” MADE A HISTORIC OUTING AS THE OFFICIAL LAWMA AMBASSADOR.

Lagos went agog as Lagos State Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) unveiled their Brand Ambassador, “OzzyBosco Wonderkid” born Master Oziomachukwu Favour Mojekwu. On the occasion of the official launch/flag-off ceremony of OzzyBosco’s pet project: “KEEP LAGOS CLEAN” Cleanliness Revolution Campaign …children lead, adults follow!!

OzzyBosco is working in partnership with LAWMA is to sensitize, motivate and educate the Lagos populace, particularly kids/teens on the need to keep their environment clean.

The LAWMA Managing Director, Mr Ola Oresanya at the LAWMA headquarters, described the wonderkid as an exemplary child who is a CHANGE AGENT for his generation. He used the occasion to announce the involvement of OzzyBosco in the LAWMA “I CARE PROJECT” which he described as new innovation in the State’s cleanliness culture.

The conference hall venue was filled to the brim with many dignitaries including; the LAWMA GM (Admin and Special Duties) Mrs Abimbola Oguns, top Lagos State Government Functionaries, Corporate Bodies, Television Personalities and Celebrities like, Ms Ngozi Nwosu, Dr Tee Mac (MFR), ace comedian MC Kofi, Schools, representatives from the market unions, Rev Sis Josephine and the children from OzzyBosco’s charity (St Monica’s Orphanage Home) and massive media presence.

 

The occasion was rounded off with a dazzling stage performance by the Wonderkid, who thrilled the audience with the project theme song titled “KEEP LAGOS CLEAN”. The song specially composed by OzzyB and dedicated to the project could not be resisted by the MD LAWMA; hence he happily joined OzzyBosco on the dance floor whilst the children sang along.

Afterwards, the LAWMA Ambassador with his large entourage, including top officials from his two (2) brands (Tigo Milk and LAWMA) proceeded to the headquarters of the Lagos Island (West) Local Government office in Isale Eko where they received very warm welcome by top management officials of the LGA.

Shortly after the reception, OzzyBosco and team accompanied by the health officials of the Local Government moved to the streets where they embarked on the proper cleaning exercise. The high point and motivating part of the exercise was seeing OzzyBosco and the children at the forefront; leading and tackling the job whilst adults admire and follow.

Mr Ola Oresanya poured encomium on the kid dynamite whom he described as a sensational child star. He further stated that “If you want to change a nation, you'll start by re-orientating the children, so that the next generation will have the right social and environmental values”. 

The Founder of OzzyBosco Smile Foundation (OSF), Chief Nonye Mojekwu (Mummy Bosco) reaffirmed their commitment to this laudable project while giving the assurance that catching children young in such exercise would be the key to a cleaner, healthier and happier society. Concluding, she quoted the biblical injunction in the book of Proverbs; “train a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it”.

Season 2 of the bi-monthly campaign is expected to hold September, 2014 in another LGA, in line with the road map of the project. On the whole, OzzyBosco and his team will be working in 57 Local Government Areas and Local Council Development Areas in Lagos State respectively using the existing Thursday market sanitation system.
