Gateway youth Awards officially started on August 20th, after the completion of the official website (www.gyawards.com) by the popular Ogun State born and Texas based web-designer and co-founder of Spotagory™ Emmanuel Iroko. It was introduced to the Youths of Ogun State via twitter with the hash tag #Gateway Youth Awards, and it recorded a twitter trend in about three hours.
