Ozo said:

"There is so many things we need to improve on. And also, it's important for us to know that sometimes, this improvement needs time. But above time, what we need more than time is dedication because if we're not dedicated then we wouldn't grow.
"We've promised ourselves so many things and we've failed, but if we dedicate ourselves to those things then we would get to those things on time. So I just see Nigeria as a growing country. We'll always continue to grow."
