Life often surprises us in the most remarkable ways. Recently, I received an unexpected email that left me astonished and profoundly grateful. The email was an invitation to membership at the International Society of Diplomats upon recommendation by the Special Emissary H.E Dr. Tasie Njemonwu Daniel to contribute to the propagation of Cyber diplomacy around the globe.
After months of rigorous selection following initial acceptance, I was finally integrated into the prestigious A-Class universal diplomatic organization.
Yesterday, on July 8th, 2024, His Excellency Prof. Ambassador Ekpenyong, the Head of Mission and Nigeria Country Director invited me to the Nigerian mission house, where I was officially integrated as a member of the ISD and appointed as a Special Emissary of the prestigious society.
The appointment came with the unexpected Global Diplomats Award, recognizing my ongoing efforts in technology and cyber diplomacy.
My colleague, Amb. Arc. Adebiyi Ayoyinka witnessed the appointment and was also integrated into the ISD membership as a Special Emissary.
I thank the Grand Global Council for the privilege given to me to serve in this office working hand in hand with government organizations and international bodies to make the world a place better than we have found it and pledge to put in the best of my knowledge and efforts as God may help me.
Reflecting on the Journey
This latest recognition led me to reflect on the milestones that have defined my journey thus far. In December 2022, I was awarded an honorary Doctorate Degree in Business Administration by the prestigious Irsbaccom University in Benin Republic. This recognition honors my contributions to West African finance, focusing on cryptocurrency, forex trading, and youth empowerment across the sub-region.
African Brands & Silverbird Groups honored me with the Business Creativity, Innovation, and Quality Service Delivery Award in October 2022.
In 2023, I was further honoured with the Forex Consultant of the Year award by Scream All Youths. This accolade celebrated my hard work, dedication, and commitment to excellence in the financial field.
That same year, I was also awarded Best Forex Strategies Analyst Issued by Trading live in Cyprus.
Impacting Lives Through PROBABA FX ACADEMY
One of the most fulfilling aspects of my journey has been the profound impact I’ve had on over 10,000 students and clients through my trading academy, PROBABA FX ACADEMY. Assisting individuals in achieving their trading goals has been immensely rewarding. By sharing knowledge, and practical insights, and providing essential tools and guidance, I’ve witnessed many of my students transform into confident and successful traders.
Gratitude for Support
None of these achievements would have been possible without the unwavering support of my incredible personal assistant, my ever-supportive fiancée, and my loving family. Their encouragement, patience, and belief in my vision have been the driving forces behind my journey. To them, I extend my deepest gratitude.
Looking Ahead
As I continue on this path, I am filled with a renewed sense of purpose and determination. The Global Diplomats Awards – International Society of Diplomats- is not just an honor but a reminder of the responsibility that comes with it – to continue fostering diplomacy, tolerance, and peaceful co-existence.
Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. Your support and encouragement mean the world to me.
