In recognition of your sterling achievements at the Bar as a distinguished lawyer and your acknowledged passion for the Nigerian economy, we are convinced that there is no person more competent than you to speak on the theme ‘Good Governance: Panacea for Peace and Prosperity.’ There is no gainsaying the fact that our country is currently undergoing challenges in the areas of peace and security, among other challenges. Without lasting peace and security, there cannot be prosperity. The monetary and fiscal policies have definitive implications for economic growth, Inflation, exchange rates and trade balances.”
