In Kigali, during the 4th edition of the OFAB Media Awards, organized in partnership with the Rwanda Agriculture and Animal Resources Development Board (RAB), Alexis Nyandwi was recognized as the country\u2019s leading social media influencer in promoting agriculture. With a radiant smile, he accepted the award, marking a milestone in a journey that began in 2015 when he worked at MINAGRI and started producing agricultural stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI dreamed of reaching this point back in 2015, when I first began creating agricultural content at the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI). This award gives me immense joy,\u201d<\/em> Alexis said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He emphasized that true success comes from loving what you do without expecting immediate personal gain, noting that the country eventually recognizes genuine effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On what led to his recognition, Alexis highlighted consistency and passion for one\u2019s work. He expressed deep gratitude to the Government of Rwanda, through MINAGRI, for providing opportunities to travel across the country and engage with farmers, which broadened his knowledge of agriculture. He also acknowledged the support of international organizations such as the African Union \u2013 Inter-African Bureau for Animal Resources (AU-IBAR), the African Agribusiness Incubation Network (AAIN), and OFAB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
