The President adds that as the former General Manager of the Nigerian Ports Authority, NPA, and Minister of Industries clocks 88, his wealth of experience and wisdom, accruing through many years of service – most recently as the Executive President of the African Business Roundtable and Chairman of the NEPAD Business Group – will always serve as an important resource pool for growth in Nigeria, and Africa.
