President Bola Tinubu has appointed Mrs Arinola Ogbara-Banjoko as a Non-Executive Director on the board of the Nigeria Commodity Exchange (NCX).
She will represent Lagos State on the board under the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment.
The appointment is contained in a statement issued by Presidential Spokesperson, Mr Bayo Onanuga, on Thursday in Abuja.
Ogbara-Banjoko replaces Mrs Bamidele Hussein.
Tinubu had earlier in April constituted the board of the Exchange with Alhaji Dalhatu Abubakar as Chairman alongside other Non-Executive Directors.
The president urged the new appointee to deploy her experience and professionalism to strengthen the operations of the Exchange.
He said the appointment aligns with the Federal Government’s efforts to deepen commodity trading, improve market access for farmers and investors, and stimulate economic growth. (NAN)
