Experts Storm Benin For Investors’ Confab
Experts in agriculture, education and health across the world will converge in Benin City, the Edo State capital, from November 19 to 21, for the Nigerian Global Investors’ Conference on Agriculture, Education and Healthcare 2019.
The conference is being organised by the University of Benin and the Nigerian Initiative for Accelerated Development in Agriculture and Education and Healthcare (NIADAEH) in conjunction with the governments of Edo and Delta states.
This was disclosed during a courtesy visit by a high-powered delegation from the University of Benin and NIADEAH, to His Royal Highness, Dr Appolus Chu, in his place in Eleme, Rivers State, last week.
The delegation was in Eleme to invite the monarch in appreciation of his invaluable contributions to the development of agriculture, education and healthcare sectors in the country.
Responding to the invitation, the excited traditional ruler confirmed his readiness to attend the conference, saying that the conference would provide the platform for the Appolus Chu Foundation to showcase it’s monumental achievements in the affected areas while also reaching to more people who may well tap from the generosity of spirit behind the goals set out in mission statement and vision of the foundation over the years.
Chu, who is the Egbere of Okori Kingdom in Eleme Local Government Area of Rivers State, said in his palace while being invited to attend the event that the conference was coming at the right time in the nation’s history.
The king, who predicted that Nigeria was on the march to greatness, also argued that corruption was not prevalent in the country as erroneously believed.
While presenting the official invitation to the king, the Deputy Vice Chancellor, Academic, University of Benin, Prof Michael Aziken, said the invitation of the Okori King was in recognition of his social and philanthropic impacts on the society, especially in the areas of agriculture, education and health.
