For the entire month of June, we celebrate dads, and so Page 2 wraps the week with more from the Eternal Father Awards (EFAs).
The second annual edition of the EFAs, which took place at the AC Hotel Kingston on Sunday, has positioned itself to be a long-standing awards show, and the initiative, conceptualised by TV presenter Anna Smith, is focused on shaping exemplary fathers for a better future by showcasing and rewarding positive male representation in Jamaica.
The awards ceremony presented honorary, compassionate and speciality awards to this year’s awardees, each receiving an Aabé (Swahili word for father) trophy in the mentioned categories.
Here are some more highlights from the red carpet.
