According to Obasanjo, a typical example of such special gifts is Dr. Chris Oyakhilome of the Christ Embassy whose life and ministry have impacted the lives of many youths in diverse ways; adding that the life and Ministry of Chris is a blessing to many and that Africa still needs more of Chris and his likes to surmount its numerous challenges.

OBJ insisted that only Africans could make Africa great even as he noted that Africa was heavily endowed with men of industry who can provide solutions to the challenges facing Africa.

Also present to grace the event, another former president of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, noted that Nigeria and the larger African continent are well blessed with human and natural resources which if well harnessed, should take the nation and continent out of the woods to compete globally.
