In a dazzling celebration of excellence, the Peak Performer Festival honored a select group of distinguished individuals and organizations for their unparalleled contributions to organizational growth and leadership across Africa.

Among the illustrious awardees were Dr. Biodun Shobanjo, Chairman & Founder of Troyka Group; Sir Ademola Aladekomo, Chairman & Founder of CHAMS Holdings; and Dr. John Momoh, founder of Channels Television Group. These eminent figures were celebrated with the prestigious Legacy Award for their visionary leadership and enduring influence.
The festival also recognized corporate organizations like LIRS, FirstBank, Shoreline Group, Access Bank, Digital Encode, Lotus Bank, LAPO, Leadway, Mastercard, Starzs Investment, Zedcrest Group, Emerging Africa, AXA Mansard, who received the Peak Performer award.
This recognition serves not only as a testament to their achievements but also as an inspiration to future generations, encouraging young leaders to pursue excellence and innovation in their fields.
At the vibrant event held at Muson Centre, Lagos, Dr Abiola Salami, the convener of The Peak Performer Festival and world-class Performance Strategist, explained that the legacy award aims to bridge the gap between successful older generations and aspiring young leaders.
“By celebrating trailblazers, the festival inspires future leaders and female executives to achieve new heights. Through summits, workshops, and networking opportunities, it equips emerging leaders with essential skills and connections,” he emphasized.
The festival’s dual goals are to empower and celebrate the demographics TPP Africa serves, focusing on young leaders under 40 who are career professionals and entrepreneurs.
Dr. Salami added, “The Peak Performance Festival serves three key demographics: young leaders under 40, women in leadership, and senior C-level executives.
“The festival provides a platform for these groups to gain insights and drive growth within their organizations. A highlight of the event is the Legacy and Corporate Award, which celebrates legacy leaders to inspire youth and corporate organizations to inspire corporate excellence on the continent.”
The convener noted that Nigeria is making progress and that recognizing successes alongside areas for improvement is crucial. “Over time, we have seen how our initiatives have contributed to increased revenue, improved operational efficiency as well as increased retention of staff and customers for the organizations we have served”.
Swiftly, Dr. Salami praised all sponsors and passionately appealed for continued support, emphasizing that more corporate backing would help extend TPP’s vision of transforming the business landscape of Africa.
While Dr. Shobanjo expressed much gratitude upon receiving his 77th career award, Sir Aladekomo commended the organizers and encouraged young entrepreneurs to pursue hard work and dedication.
Indeed, the Peak Performer Festival continues to be a beacon of inspiration, equipping key marketplace players, highlighting the remarkable achievements of those who drive progress and set new standards in leadership and performance across Africa.
