Bridging Generations, Sharing Wisdom, Building the Future The second edition of Connect and Grow with AY Nigeria was nothing short of remarkable—so much history, so many lessons, and undeniable proof that platforms like this are creating the much-needed bridge between generations. There’s an entire world of knowledge, experiences, and invaluable insights that the older generation carries—stories of resilience, leadership, and impact that the younger generation may never have to experience firsthand but must learn from. This platform is making that connection possible, ensuring that wisdom is not lost but passed down as a blueprint for the future. A special appreciation to our Pioneer Guest Mentor, Senator Babafemii Ojudu, whose generosity and commitment to knowledge-sharing remain inspiring. He graciously gifted 32 copies of his new book, The Adventure of the Guerrilla Journalist, to community members present. This is more than a gift—it’s a treasure trove of experience, a roadmap for aspiring changemakers, and we are truly grateful for the opportunity to learn from his journey. To our incredible Community Manager and Volunteers—your dedication, consistency, and vision for this platform is shaping something truly phenomenal. Your efforts to elevate this community to a globally benchmarked standard do not go unnoticed, and we are excited for all that is yet to come. The seeds being planted here will grow into legacies. The conversations we’re having today will shape the future. And trust us—this is only the beginning. A huge thank you to Dream View Hotel and Suites for housing us and giving us such a classy experience. -AY Nigeria 🇳🇬 https://aynigeria.com
