Professor Koyinsola Ajayi, SAN, noted further that that the Lagos State Governor Akinwunmi Ambode foresaw the NBA 2017 AGC as the greatest conference to be held in this country; adding that the giant stride and infrastructural development in Kano state, necessitates the participation of Kano State at the NBA 2017 AGC. He enthused that “Kano is a mega city, one of the oldest in sub-Saharan Africa, even before Lagos became one, therefore there is need for Kano to regain its status and this can be achieved by the state government showcasing its strength and business opportunities at this year’s conference.” In his remarks, the Kano State Governor Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje said the state government was ready to partner with the NBA in actualising its vision for the 2017 Annual General Conference. “Whenever Lagos shouts, we will certainly shout louder” he said, drawing a loud ovation from the audience; “When you talked about the theme of the conference, which is ‘Institution building’ and ‘Business opportunities’, I became very interested. These are the areas where we want to make meaningful development as a government and as a people, and for us to have a meaningful development, we must build strong institutions and for us to deliver the dividends of democracy, we must provide business opportunities for our teeming population”. He concluded, “Strong Institutions are the only legacy we will live behind for future generations. I will await the chairman’s specific areas of partnership and you can count on our support”.
