The governor of Zamfara State, Dauda Lawal is set to be conferred with the prestigious honour of the hero of 2023 Electioneering in the upcoming Democracy Heroes Award. 


Recall that the governor caused an upstage when he won the 2023 governoship election in the North West Zamfara, dislodging the the incumbent Bello Matawalle in a state largely considered an APC stronghold. 


The award being spearheaded by Face of Democracy Nigeria (FDN) is organized to recognize entrepreneurs, business and political leaders who have made outstanding contributions in the development of the society in the areas of employment creation, excellent governance, corporate social responsibility and others. 


A devoted portal, https://democracyheroesaward.com/vote/ was created where voting which lasted for about two months took place. 


The official conferment takes place October 13, 2023 in Abuja where along with others who won, the governor, a former bank executive will be crowned the Hero of 2023 Electioneering award. 


The Project Director of Face of Democracy Nigeria, FDN projects, Organisers of Face of Democracy Nigeria, Olufunsho Ajagbonna aka Fajag at a press briefing in Abuja expressed satisfaction with the successful outcome of the process. 


He said collation of votes was transparently carried out, urging those who did not win in their various categories of nomination to exercise patience as subsequent editions will hold. 


Fajag said the organisation is poised to recognising Africans who have made immense contributions towards to development of the continent.
