Success Should Be Measured By Impact On Others— Newman

Founder of Straight Business Integrated Limited and Zed-Faith Foundation International, Amb. Daniel Onyeka Newman, has said success should be measured by the impact people make on others and not only by what they build for themselves.

Newman stated this in his acceptance speech delivered by Elder Chigozie Nwaobilor at the 2026 Nigerian Most Influential Awards, where he received the Entrepreneur and Philanthropy Award.

He said, “True success is measured not just by what we build for ourselves, but by what we build for others. This award is a call to do more.”

Newman dedicated the award to members of his team, partners and beneficiaries, acknowledging their contributions to the organisations’ activities.

The award ceremony formed part of activities marking the 10th anniversary of the Nigerian Most Influential Awards, which recognises individuals for their contributions to society and nation-building.
