What they are saying
Commenting on Chief Emmanuel’s retirement, Daniel Agbor, Chairman of the Board of Directors of UAC of Nigeria PLC, said,
“Since joining Grand Cereals, Chief Emmanuel has been at the forefront of innovative developments that have taken the company to the leadership position in the industry. For instance, he is credited with playing a leading role in the expansion of the company’s production footprint to Onitsha, Anambra State via a state-of-the-art plant.
This has considerably improved our production capacity leading to a sizable increase of market share. He was also instrumental to the diversification of the company’s product range to improve returns on a risk-adjusted basis leading to the production of fish, ruminant and pig feed in the livestock category and dog food in the pet category.”
Sixteen Years a Lesson Teacher, By Tolu Ogunlesi
The best time to deal with a wound is as soon as it emerges; there is no second-best time. First we ignore, then we ignore again, then things go out of hand, then we’re forced to sit up, and pay a heavy price for our initial nonchalance. Now we’re on the cusp of another rebellion in the South-East, and we need to do something about it. Something a bit more creative than a random and ruthless military clampdown, which failed to work with Boko Haram, failed in the Niger Delta, and will similarly fail with any other manifestation of the potent mix of poverty and perceived marginalisation in Nigeria.
