Today, another Friday, we are here. And I am further motivated by the exclusive assembly of your distinguish presence to witness this event in an atmosphere where no winner, no vanquished was declared.

I will like to thank the outgoing president, Mr Andy Amenechi and his sterling executives for raising the bar and establishing standards that have taken DGN forward.” Other executives of the association sworn in alongside Amata include Mike Ogunwusi (vice president), Ugezu Ugor (cecretary), Uchenna Agbo (assistant secretary) and Oduala Taiwo (pro).
