The Honorable Commissioner, in a chat with Daily Trust said he felt happy that a young, passionate nail painter from his state was making such an attempt.
He said, “I went to the event center to encourage and support. She is the first person to make such an attempt and she is from our own Plateau state. Being the Commissioner for Youths and Sport Development, we need to encourage our youth to achieve their dreams in one way or the other.”
The honorable commissioner, who doubles as the Chairman of Nigeria’s Forum of Youth and Sports Development Commissioners, further supported her with a token of N100,000.
Dachor joins the likes of Hilda Baci and more recently Clara Kronborg, as record holders.
