Today marks a momentous occasion in Africa’s academic and intellectual landscape as Sele Media Africa proudly celebrates the birthday of one of the continent’s brightest scholarly minds — Dr. Leonard Ndzi, a distinguished researcher, educator, and literacy advocate.

Dr. Ndzi, a Cameroonian-born scholar, has authored and published over 20 peer-reviewed research articles, earning him continental respect and recognition in the academic community. Recently, he was honored with a prestigious African Scholar Award for his unwavering contribution to literacy and education across the continent — a milestone that affirms his position as one of Africa’s leading academic voices.

Speaking on this special day, Amb. John Sele Philip, the CEO and Founder of Sele Media Africa, described Dr. Ndzi as “a father, a friend, a mentor, and a symbol of academic integrity and vision.” He continued:

“Dr. Leonard Ndzi has not only built intellectual bridges across Africa but has also been a personal compass to me. His guidance, encouragement, and fatherly mentorship have helped shape my leadership journey, especially in the founding of Sele Media Africa. It is rare to find men who walk with so much humility yet carry such a massive intellectual weight.”

Beyond publishing research, Dr. Ndzi has dedicated years of his life to developing literacy programs, mentoring young African scholars, and promoting inclusive education. His work cuts across theology, business, development studies, educational foundations, and transformational leadership — fields that are key to the continent’s future.

Sele Media Africa joins voices across the globe in celebrating this African icon and praying for greater strength, impact, and global reach in his life’s mission.

“Today, Africa celebrates not just a birthday but a legacy in motion. May your new age open more doors, raise more scholars, and deepen your impact, Sir. You are Africa’s pride.”
— Amb. John Sele Philip

From all of us at Sele Media Africa, we say:
Happy Birthday, Dr. Leonard Ndzi — Africa salutes you!
