According to Dzukogi, “Hill-Top Creative Arts Foundation is the fastest growing literary art organisation in Nigeria. It is the gift of Niger State to the world. And we are not competing with anybody or group. Our leaders and members are smart young men and women, therefore, we own the future. Our target is not Nigeria but the world.”
