Nigeria Arise Initiative, in Association with BEN Television, (United Kingdom), is once again putting touches together to recognize and celebrate Nigerians in Diaspora and from Nigeria in this Centenary year of the country.

Mr. Alistair Soyode, who is the founding executive added, "This year's Nigeria Arise will be different in the sense that, Nigeria celebrates her centenary. We are uniquely positioned to showcase Nigeria to the outside World and celebrate our leaders doing better than normal  as well as captains in chosen business and careers".
This year Award ceremony returned to London, UK after been hosted in Nigeria last year. It is not about the size of it but the impact we hope we can achieve by showing that Nigeria can indeed change if we put our resources together identifying those that can help us change for the better. This years' award is more important to us, as we celebrate Nigeria Centenary bringing ordinary people together with the establishment and recognising those that are working hard to better their communities and localities" added Mr. Alistair Soyode, the convener.
Some of the nominees are from the Banking Industry, Media, Telecom, Legislative and Nigeria Customs amongst others while such states as Akwa Ibom, Kano, Ogun & Imo States to list few are recipients on infrastructural development, good governance, impact on State management etc.
As a recognition platform, the Nigeria Arise Award thrives from citizen's nominations and voting, and includes several notable award categories amongst which are: Politics, Governance, Corporate, Broadcasting Media, Business, Online Development, etc. to mention but a few. The event has both in past and present been equally graced by notable and distinguished members of the Nigerian high society.
