Amid the current uncertainties facing Nigeria’s economy, a group of experts led by Ibukun Awosika, the Founder of The Chair Centre Group, will be gathering to discuss and develop innovative solutions and strategies to drive fiscal stability and prosperity in the country.
This team of experts, comprising professionals from both the public and private sectors, will be analyzing the state of the economy under the theme: “Reassessing the Governance Dynamics in Nigeria’s Transition to Enduring Development and National Prosperity.” They will be presenting their findings and recommendations at the 48th national conference of the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators of Nigeria (ICSAN) in Lagos.
Funmi Ekundayo, the President of ICSAN, revealed this during ICSAN’s “Walk for Life” program held prior to the conference. She emphasized the importance of the chosen theme in evaluating existing policies and charting a course towards sustainable economic growth.
Ekundayo further explained that the panel of discussants, including Ernest Ndukwe (Chairman, MTN Nigeria) and Fabian Ajogwu (Senior Partner, Kenna Partners), were selected based on their impressive credentials and extensive experience in corporate governance. Their insights will help steer corporate governance practices in the right direction and enhance the expertise of professionals in the field.
She also added, “As a nation, we need to embrace transformative dynamics that can reshape Nigeria’s narrative, fostering a more prosperous nation where all citizens can thrive with reduced economic anxiety. During the conference, we will delve into these issues while also exploring key elements of good governance such as transparency, accountability, and efficient use of national resources.”
Uta Ukpanah, Vice President of ICSAN, highlighted the importance of a healthy lifestyle and regular exercise for professionals to increase their productivity during the “Walk for Life” program.
