GLORIFYING THE LIONS 2022 NOMINATION
Updated: Nov 23, 2021

The title of this award is derived from an old proverb of the Ibo people of Nigeria. “Until lions have their own historians, tales of the hunt will always glorify the hunter.” The message is that no telling of history is complete until both sides are told. The award ceremony celebrates our living Lions.
The 2022 Lions will be honored during our annual television special on WLWT Channel 5.
