Inemesit Dike of The Legal Concierge has won the Forty Under Forty Africa Awards, Law Category.
In a statement made available to lawyer waka.com, the Lagos based lawyer who was full of gratitude and appreciation to everyone who supported her success, had a lot to say upon her return from South Africa.
“I am so excited and privileged to announce that I am the *Winner* of the *Forty Under Forty Africa Awards, Law Category.* The awards process was a long journey that required work, consistency, grit through discouragement and fear, proper documentary evidence and favour with God and man. The awards points are given based on 80% for the body of work done by the awardees and the remaining 20% was based on voting.
“Even though we didn’t start voting as early as the other applicants thus I had less votes by deadline but out of 3000 applicants, 126 shortlisted Nominees, *WE STILL WON THE AWARD‼️*
“I want to say a big thank you to God Almighty who gave me a phenomenal idea of converging law, business and technology to enhance legal services (@legalx_app) in Africa.
“I want to say a big thank you to all my mentors, my friends, family, alumni, church family, who loved me and gave me phenomenal support on this journey. I am humbled and grateful for your support.
“My intense gratitude goes to my family who prayed for me and supported me throughout this journey.
“I want to thank the organizers of the FortyUnder40 awards (@fortyu40africa) for this honor and for creating a platform that celebrates young leaders who are making a difference in their industries and communities.
“Congratulations to my fellow nominees, who are all doing amazing work, and to the fans and mentees who voted for me. I am humbled and grateful for your support.
“I’m truly inspired by all the amazing young Africans I met at the awards ceremony in South Africa, who are doing phenomenal things & making such a global impact.
“As I reflect on this moment, I am reminded of the importance of lifting others as we climb. It is not enough to achieve success for ourselves; we must also empower and inspire others to reach their full potential.
“I urge all rising stars to never forget this and to always strive to raise other leaders so that together, we can make the world a better place.
“Thank you once again to everyone who has supported me on this journey, especially to my Legal X team (@legalx_app). I look forward to continuing to serve and inspire others in the years to come.
“To this end, I’m further renewing my pledge to continue to give back and ensure that lawyers, especially young lawyers here in Nigeria, are equipped with the technology and business skills to compete internationally.
“Together, we will win.
“From my Couch to yours,
Inemesit Dike
The Legal Concierge”
