Meet Mr Freeman Osonuga, the Nigerian man who has been
shortlisted as one of the lucky human beings to travel to space.
Our Reports has it that Osonuga was chosen through the Rising
Star programme, which was launched at the One Young World Summit 2014 in
Dublin. The programme invites One Young World Ambassadors and outstanding
members of the public (aged 18-35) to take on the trip of a lifetime.
If selected for the programme, the person will not only embark
on a once in a lifetime flight to space but will also be offered a three-year
management contract. Well, Osonuga is a medicine and surgery graduate from Olabisi
Onabanjo University, Ogun state. He is also a 2015 WIRED Innovation Fellow who
will be speaking live on stage at the conference in October, London.
In 2014, at the peak of the Ebola epidemic in Africa, he
worked as a volunteer. Apart from that, he was part of the African Union team
of Ebola responders in Sierra Leone.
