Obasanjo wants The Delborough CEO to build greater brands
Ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo has prayed for ‘The Delborough Lagos’ owner, Dr Stanley Uzochukwu, to build greater luxury brands.
He said this during the official grand opening of ‘The Delborough Lagos’ on Saturday in Lagos, Nigeria.
In his remarks, Obasanjo said, “I don’t have anything to say other than to say, keep doing what you are doing.
“I heard the Governor of Lagos State saying that you’re working together. He is helping you and you are helping him and that’s what it should be – the private sector and public sector should work together for the development of the land. It shouldn’t be the other way around.
“God that has given you the ability, the resource, the enablement to put this up, will give you the ability and the enablement to build the one that is bigger and greater than this.”
Notable Nigerians at the inauguration ceremony included Lagos State Governor, Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu; a former Senate President and Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator Anyim Pius Anyim; the Emir of Kano, HRH, Dr Aminu Ado Bayero; Igwe of Onitsha Kingdom and the chairman of The Delborough Board, HRM Igwe Alfred Nnaemeka Achebe.
Others are Olu of Warri, His Majesty, Ogiame Atuwatse III, CFR; Chief (Dr) Mike Ozekhome (SAN); Prof Lilian Orogbo; Senator Daisy Danjuma and other local and international dignitaries, too many to mention.
