The Key, which is only presented to deserving recipients and global changemakers, is the traditional symbol of highest recognition in the City Council.

Senator Kelvin S. Parker also honored Rev Otu on behalf of the New York Senate for her commitment to bettering the lives of People Living With Disabilities (PLWDs). He noted that it is the belief of the legislative body that when individuals accomplish such noble deeds like Rev Otu’s, and their aims and accomplishments are brought to the attention of the US Senate, it is right to publicly proclaim and commend those individuals for the edification and emulation of others.

In the same vein, a Proclamation of Honor was also presented to Rev Otu by the United States House of Representatives through Congresswoman, Yvette D. Clarke, for her many contributions and positive impacts in the global community.

Her Excellency, represented by the Special Adviser, Programs Projects and Events, Dr. Inyang Asibong, lauded the organizers for the colorful event and added that the greatest motivation to do more, was the recognition of hard work.

In a related development, the United States President, Joe R. Biden, presented the 2023 Joe Biden Lifetime Achievement Award to Amb. (Dr.) Arit Fuller, the convener of the program, for her outstanding humanitarian qualities through the years.

The awards ceremony was the highlight of the gala, which also featured a cocktail reception, dinner, and dancing. The event was attended by over 300 people, including dignitaries from the United States, West Africa and the Caribbean.
