Renowned entrepreneur and philanthropist, Mr. Amos Anago, has been named one of the distinguished recipients of the National Gold Merit and Excellent Performance Award 2026, in recognition of his remarkable contributions to entrepreneurship, philanthropy and community development.
A native of Achalla in Awka North Local Government Area of Anambra State, Mr. Anago hails from the respected royal family of Chief and Lolo Anago. He was raised with strong values of hard work, integrity, compassion and service to humanity – principles that have continued to define both his personal and professional life.
Driven by a passion for enterprise, he acquired years of practical experience through mentorship and industry training before establishing Rapsogold Nigeria Limited, a company that has grown into one of Nigeria’s leading suppliers in the beauty and fashion industry.
For more than 16 years, Rapsogold Nigeria Limited has built a solid reputation through the direct importation of premium human hair, hair care products and fashion accessories. The company has earned the trust of distributors and customers nationwide for its unwavering commitment to quality, consistency and integrity, making it a benchmark of excellence in the industry.
As the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Anago has consistently demonstrated that success is built on determination, resilience, discipline and honesty. He believes that genuine achievement is measured not only by financial success but also by the positive impact made on people and society. This philosophy has earned him admiration as a mentor to young entrepreneurs and a compassionate philanthropist.
Beyond the business world, Anago has remained deeply committed to his Catholic faith and community service. He has served the Church in several leadership capacities, including a two-year tenure as Chairman of the Harvest Planning Committee.
In recognition of his outstanding dedication and service, he was honoured with the prestigious title of Worthy Father of the Roman Catholic Church, an honour reserved for individuals who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to the Church and humanity. He is also known for his deep respect for Nigeria’s rich traditional cultural heritage.
Further demonstrating his passion for economic development, Anago recently diversified into the hospitality sector with the establishment and commissioning of Global Brand Hotel in Awka, Anambra State. The investment has created employment opportunities while contributing to tourism and economic growth in the state.
In recognition of his humility, outstanding entrepreneurial achievements, philanthropic initiatives and enduring contributions to national development, Anago has been selected to receive the National Gold Merit and Excellent Performance Award 2026.
The prestigious honour will be presented during the 17th Anniversary, Annual Lecture and Awards Ceremony of National Impact Glitz Magazine, scheduled to hold on Saturday, August 8, 2026, at Presken Hotel and Resort, Ikeja, Lagos.
