Nollywood actress, Jane Thomas-Rogers, popularly known as JT Rogers has been nominated for a US-based humanitarian award – DDEA Humanitarian Award.
The award is scheduled to take place in the United States of America (USA) on Saturday, 25th September, 2021.
The event is known for celebrating outstanding individuals from different parts of the world who are involved in touching lives positively.
Jane Rogers, a Nigerian actress and filmmaker is well known for her advocacy for better society and her efficacy in humanitarian services.
“Jane has been nominated for her active advocacy for the less privileged and for providing for internally displaced people in the IDP camps in Nigeria, especially in Kaduna State,” the organisers stated.
However, elated Jane took to her Instagram page on Thursday, September 24th, 2021 to express her delight.
She wrote; “I am still in a state of disbelief that I could be rewarded for something I literally do as a way of life – which is ‘service to humanity.’ Yes, I see it as a way of life because that’s the culture my late parents, Mr & Mrs Thomas Rogers, observed.”
“Perhaps, that explains why I do charity effortlessly. but I’m grateful today that I’m being nominated for an award by a US-based award brand.”
“DDEA Humanitarian Award is one of the top humanitarian award brands in the United States. I must say that I’m super grateful to the Almighty God and to the award organisers for identifying little little me among millions of people around the world and granting me such honour.”
