Jidenma said the event was an avenue to recognise well deserving directors in public and private sectors via awards in various categories.

She tasked directors to reflect on the activities of the outgoing year and proffer solutions to boost the economy in the incoming year through well thought out policies.

The IoD president reiterated that the institute would continue to advocate viable policy options that would do the country good in spite of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

“The IoD with renewed vigour has been pursuing the charter status of the institute and has recorded great success with the bill currently in the Senate and hopeful to get the president’s assent soon.

“The construction of the IoD house has also gathered more steam and by next year, the project would have effectively taken off.

“2022 is projected to be a year of new opportunities with improved engagements with members and all other stakeholders,” she said.

Dr Umar Danbatta, Executive Vice Chairman, Nigeria Communications Commission (NCC), encouraged directors to embody and practice principles of good corporate governance culture to spur national development.

Danbatta was represented by Mr Ayobanji Ojo, Head, Strategy, Corporate Planning and Risk Management, NCC.

He listed the 5G spectrum technology signing by MTN and MAFAB as a recent achievement of the NCC, saying the development offered great benefits to the Nigerian communication sector.
