Lesson360 Founder, Ekweoba, Honoured with Mandela Award

ESV. Arnold Chukwuebuka, the founder of Lesson360 and a prominent Nigerian entrepreneur, has been honored with the prestigious 2026 Nelson Mandela Impact Makers Award. This recognition comes after years of contributions to real estate, innovation, humanitarian service, and sustainable development. The ceremony took place on August 3, 2026, during a private investiture in Abuja, where Chukwuebuka was acknowledged as a trailblazer in his field.

The award was presented by the Director-General of PPSLA Africa, Dr. Lotanna Okoye, who emphasized the importance of impact-driven leadership and the duty of African leaders to build enduring legacies. Chukwuebuka's entrepreneurial journey began in 2015 with the founding of Arnold & Associates Group. Over the years, his business has expanded into real estate, construction, renewable energy, and education technology.

His real estate ventures include significant property developments like Brownwood Luxury Estate, Presidential Estate, and others in the South-East region. Chukwuebuka's interest in renewable energy has led to solar power solutions as part of the Arnold & Associates Energy initiative. In the education sector, he has made strides through Lesson360, a digital learning platform aimed at making education more accessible through technology.

Additionally, his humanitarian efforts, including youth empowerment and support for widows, have garnered attention. Beyond business, Chukwuebuka's initiatives to preserve and promote the Igbo language and culture, such as the platforms 360 Akụkọ Na Egwu Igbo and Mụta Asụsụ Igbo TV, highlight his commitment to cultural heritage.

This 2026 Nelson Mandela Impact Makers Award further cements his reputation as a dynamic force in business, education, innovation, culture, and humanitarian initiatives.
