Who say hard work never pays? It was in recognition of the hard work persistently demonstrated that Mr. Allanso Jonathan Allanso, the Sport Editor of The Newswriter was appreciated on his doggedness in using his Yahweh given skill to develop the areas of industrial peace, good leadership, character moulding, socio-economic stability, sports, youths development, journalism, promoting peaceful coexistence among youths of Nigeria and rendering selfless services to humanity by the league of character club Nigeria on the 28th day of November, 2013.
But first, Mr. Allanso Jonathan Allanso was awarded the best sports, youth development, sports journalist in the Niger Delta by the Grassof Organization at Uyo, the capital of Akwa Ibom state at the U-18 boys National Ambassador Sam Edem Soccer competition in 2007.
Now, Mr. Allanso Jonathan Allanso has been adjudged the best sports journalist in the Hon. Aye Atamah Pepple sponsored Old Port Harcourt Independence soccer tournament 2nd edition on 1st of October, 2014 at No. 1 Bende Street No. 1 Field, popularly called Amaechi field.
The hard working sports Editor of The Newswriter has been on the field reporting grassroots sports more than any sports reporter found in the land.
To him, if sports reporter don’t pay attention, or report what happen around him, who will report what happen around us? He said foreign sports is being reported by sports journalists around the world everyday, if ours is not reported, it means that nothing is happening around us in our domain?
The dogged sports reporter has therefore made it a point of duty to report more of local content in his sports page every edition. And promised to keep the tempo as far as he reports sports. This may sound strange to many, Mr. Allanso Jonathan Allanso started as a coach while subtly reporting sports through papers, radio and television. He had helped many soccer talents find their bearing in their chosen career.
His selfless services to see the youths make it m life had made him father, mentor figure to many young footballers today in life.
So religious, principled and disciplined that he does not compromise the success of an individual to money hence prepared to go any length to see whoever he has interest to help to fight for his or her course. This has made him today not a rich or wealthy Youngman as a person, compared to those of his cotemporaries in life.
He believes with Yahweh his Grand creator the best is yet to come for him that one day he will make it.####
