Oh my God!The Audacity of Dreams!#AJEA2022 pic.twitter.com/N5fm9ZNpsZ— Ochi (@soo_ochieng) May 6, 2022 This being the very first award he’s won in his career, Steve as we normally refer to him, was evidently excited. “It never occurred to me that we would win an award at the 10th Annual Journalism Excellence Awards held by the Media Council of Kenya yesterday. Just going in after getting the nomination was already such a huge milestone for me. But coming out of the gala as the winner of the Sports Reporting (Digital) Award was mind-blowing! It was such an honour. I cannot explain it,” he says, Our very own @soo_ochieng wins the Sports Reporting Award (Digital) at the Annual Journalism Excellence Awards by @MediaCouncilK 👏 pic.twitter.com/okPfGs0AZh— Mozzart Sport Kenya (@MozzartSportKe) May 6, 2022 “When I set out in this field, I dreamt of such moments. So this very much feels like a dream come true. My story is testament that if I can do it, there are also many inexperienced kids just like me who can do it as well and only need a chance to show it. To all in charge of giving opportunity, just believe in them,” he added. Steve is a gifted story teller and he did justice to this award-winning article.The Audacity of Dreams: This is the story of Emmanuel ‘Otis’ PalaWe are truly happy for Steve and he has once again proved beyond any reasonable doubt that Mozzart Sport is a hotbed of Sports Journalism you can trust.
