Lemi Ghariokwu, as a man of principle and convictions, would also very easily pass as a comedian.
To show how talented he is, he once collaborated with Danny Wilson in a song titled ‘ Omo la Keji e.’ Such is the bundle of creativity in this Agbor man born in Lagos and who has lived all his youthful age in Igbobi/Fadeyi area of Lagos.
45 years after, Sir Lemi remains an internationally sought out visual artist whose work stems from a place of deep passion and consistency speaking to the very depth of the beholder and the Creative Industry Group is in no doubt honoured at the opportunity to present him with The Lifetime Achievers Award.
