"For over 12 years, Privilege Magazine has organized the Nigerian Leadership Awards. The event has grown in size and stature with every passing year and there is an absolutely stellar collection of the best and brightest active in leadership today, those People producing fresh policy thinking, shedding new light on issues and broadening public engagement in Leadership"

In a similar development, the Chairman of Privilege Communications Nigeria Limited, publishers of Privilege Magazine and organizers of NLA 2023 Public Lecture presentation Mr Victor Mathew Bobai said:

"We hope that the NLA 2023 edition will be able to do the same for all categories and  young people at the start of their career in Leadership, public policy and political communication. And if the fantastic calibre of entries we received this year is anything to go by, this is an achievement that will easily be met"

According to Bobai, "Politics hasn’t been pretty in recent months. Public confidence and trust is a failure. It has ebbed away and economic and civic uncertainty in the future have been the consequence. The current governmental experience could cast a long shadow if we let it"

"But across the Country, there's a new generation of thinkers, campaigners and communicators who have been grappling with and finding solutions to a seemingly ever-lengthening list of intractable social, economic, and diplomatic challenges"

"At a time of growing political polarisation and generational change, NLA Public Lecture will bring together and to celebrate the veterans and as well as those people in the early stages of their careers, who are already driving future change" he added;
