My sincerest thanks to each and everyone who voted for me in the two categories, that is Greatness in Mapping Award and Improving the Africa Award. I’m honoured and humbled that you believed in me. From the day I noticed that my name has been nominated I felt encouragement to keep doing what I am doing. I will forever be greatful to the OpenSteetMap Community.

I can’t express how thankful I am that I won the Greatness in Mapping Award. It is an honour to be recognised by such a great community.

I also want to thank Fingal County Council for introducing #MapLesotho because that’s how I first knew about OpenSteetMap and it’s usefulness. I am the one who got this honor but the award belongs at least equally to the great teams that I have had the good fortune to work with at the various stages, more especially my mentor DeBigC who dedicated his time to guide and advice me. I’m extremely grateful!
