NO TROPHY WAS HANDED UNJUSTLY and if anyone paid a dime for a trophy, please call us out!? Just like every other award, we’re subject to criticisms!

This professional response came hours after controversy was roused by a chart circulating on social media showing different results from those officially presented at the award night in the category; “ Most Entrepreneurial Youth Below 25”

Best Entrepreneurial Youth Of The Year Trophy

The AB Afrikpreneur Award is a Cameroonian growing but focused body centered on celebrating, showcasing and linking African Entrepreneurs of all works of life.
