The mega commercial city of Lagos was
bubbling as the Lagos State Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) unveiled
their sensational Brand Ambassador, “OzzyBosco Wonderkid” born Master
Oziomachukwu Favour Mojekwu.
This happened at the official launch/flag-off
ceremony of OzzyBosco’s pet project: “KEEP LAGOS CLEAN” Cleanliness
Revolution Campaign …children lead, adults follow!!
OzzyBosco who is working in partnership with
LAWMA is to sensitize, motivate and educate the Lagos populace in
particular kids/teens on the need to keep their environment clean.
The LAWMA Managing Director, Mr Ola Oresanya
at the LAWMA headquarters, Ijora-Olopa, 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 Wonderkid in the LAWMA
“I Care Project” which he described as new innovation in the State’s
cleanliness culture. Kids he said are being taught to make wealth from
waste; picking up waste in their homes, schools, public places and
bringing them to LAWMA in exchange for a mouth watery pack.
The conference hall venue was filled to the
brim with many dignitaries including; the LAWMA GM (Administration and
Special Duties) Mrs Abimbola Oguns, top Lagos State Government
Functionaries, Corporate Bodies, Television Personalities and
Celebrities from the entertainment industry were not left out.
Celebrities on attendance include, 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 (Saint Monica’s
Orphanage Home) and massive media presence.
The occasion was however rounded off with a
dazzling stage performance by the Wonderkid OzzyBosco, who thrilled the
exhilarating audience with the project theme song titled “KEEP LAGOS
CLEAN”. The song specially composed by kid star and dedicated to the
project.
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, the team moved
to the streets of Isale eko through Iga Idugaran where they embarked on
the proper cleanliness exercise to the admiration of all the people
around. The high point and motivating part of the exercise was seeing
OzzyBosco and the children at the forefront; physically tackling the job
and taking the lead position whilst adults admire and follow.
In his speech, 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 start
by re-orientating the children, so that the next generation will have
the right environmental values”.
The next project is expected to hold in
September in another LGA. In line with the road map of the project,
OzzyBosco and team will be working in 57 Local Government Areas (LGAs)
and Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) in Lagos State. This
historic project is planned to hold respectively (every two months)
using the existing Thursday market sanitation system.
