Former presidential aspirant Sami Charles receives Gusi Peace Prize in Manila, Philippines

Renowned philanthropist and business magnate, Sami Charles emerged as a recipient of the prestigious Gusi Peace Prize during a recent ceremony in Manila, Philippines.

The award, presented by the Gusi Peace Prize Foundation, was in recognition of Charles’s notable contributions to global peace and progress across various domains.

The award by the Gusi Foundation of Manila, Philippines – which is considered the Pulitzer Prize of Asia, was previously presented to presidents of countries, eminent scientists and industry leaders.

As the chairman of ANOG Group, a global oil firm, and leader of 11 other companies, Charles, who was a presidential aspirant in the 2023 election, has not only achieved significant financial success but has also demonstrated a strong commitment to social responsibilities.

The Gusi Peace Prize, awarded through the presidential proclamation 1476, is a highly esteemed national and international institution based in the Philippines.

Recognized as Asia’s foremost awards body, the Gusi Peace Prize is bestowed upon individuals and organizations making substantial contributions to global peace and progress.

Sami Charles, an alumnus of the University of Jos with a degree in Law, has gone beyond traditional business leadership.

As the convener of the Foundation for a New Nigeria, he played a pivotal role in mobilizing millions of youth, particularly in the context of the 2023 elections.

In response to Charles’ achievement, Alpha Kolla Balde, the presidential candidate from Guinea Conakry, sent a congratulatory letter praising Sami Charles as a source of inspiration for African youth.

Balde highlighted Charles’ dedication to not only financial success but also his commitment to making a positive impact on the African continent.

His letter reads:

Dear Dr. Charles,
