The awards recognized his sustained contributions to cultural diplomacy, entertainment promotion, and the projection of a positive image of Nigeria within European communities.
The Grandstyle Awards and Send-Off Ceremony was a colourful and memorable gathering that brought together distinguished personalities and respected members of the Creative Industry Group community. The event celebrated excellence, service, and commitment among individuals who have contributed significantly to the growth and visibility of African creative industries in the diaspora.
In his remarks, Izoya expressed gratitude to the organizers and members of the Creative Industry Group for the recognition, noting that the awards serve as further encouragement to continue his mission of promoting Nigerian culture and strengthening cultural ties between Nigeria and Europe
Isaac Izoya, the curator of Nollywood Film Festival Germany and Nollywood Europe Golden Awards in Germany, has this to say:
“I am truly grateful to God for His grace and mercy. Visiting Nigeria and witnessing this moment firsthand is a powerful reminder that the mission is accomplished, especially, in the face of social media negative narratives about our great nation, Nigeria.
“To whom much is given, much is expected. I am ready to do more for Nigeria, my country and… The show must go on!’
