Buhari congratulates Awolowo on new assignment

Published by

President Muhammadu Buhari has lauded Executive Director/Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian Export Promotion Council, Mr Olusegun Awolowo, on his election as President of National Trade Promotion Organizations (TPOs) from ECOWAS Member States.

This was contained in a statement issued by Femi Adesina, Special Adviser to the President (Media and Publicity) on Friday, in which the President said Awolowo’s unanimous election was a testament to the confidence reposed in him, and in Nigeria, by Chief Executive Officers of trade promotion organizations in West Africa, and urges him to serve to the best of his ability, and do the country proud.

President Buhari noted that an ECOWAS TPO Network holds great possibilities for Nigeria and the sub-region in the areas of exchange of commercial information and business opportunities, adding that the domiciling of the Secretariat in Abuja would open vistas of opportunities for Nigeria.

The President wished Mr Awolowo well in his new assignment, expressing confidence that Nigeria and ECOWAS would benefit a lot from his expertise in trade promotions.
