The accolade came from the blues as the SLAM-Global Director General, Dr Alfred Venod Fullah, was surprised to hear his name announced as the Best Dad yesterday in London among other competent fathers present. (Photo: Dr Fullah, left, received his accolade yesterday).

Dr Fullah was indeed humbled and excited to receive such an important recognition from the Human Health Care and the African Child Team yesterday at Burgess Park in London. Dr Fullah thanked the Human Health Care and the African Child Team for the privilege.

“To be recognised for fatherhood at an event celebrating our children means everything. Fatherhood isn’t a title you win once. It’s daily presence, love, and showing up,” the SLAM-Global chief said. Read below the response of Dr Fullah –

Best Dad! I’m Honoured and Humbled

On Saturday, 20 June 2026, I was named Best Dad by the Human Health Care at The African Child Event, Burgess Park, London, UK.

To be recognised for fatherhood at an event celebrating our children means everything. Fatherhood isn’t a title you win once. It’s daily presence, love, and showing up.

Thank you to Human Health Care and The African Child team for this privilege. And to my kids: you make me better every day. Being a dad is my greatest role. This award belongs to my family, too. Lots of love…Xx
