Bank of Industry CEO Mr. Olukayode Pitan, has been lauded with the esteemed Special African Banking Leadership Commendation Award. This recognition was bestowed upon him during the 9th International Forum on African-Caribbean Leadership (IFAL), a distinguished event convened on the sidelines of the 78th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) at the New York Hilton Midtown on September 21, 2023. The overarching theme of the event was “African-Caribbean Cooperation and Today’s Geopolitics.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The accolade is a tribute to Bank of Industry CEO Mr. Pitan’s remarkable contributions to leadership achievements and his pivotal role in advancing Nigeria’s industrial sector. As the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank of Industry, Nigeria’s oldest and largest development finance institution, Mr. Pitan draws from a wealth of experience accumulated across various financial services sectors, including banking and capital markets, during his illustrious 30-year career in fulfilling the bank’s mandate. Under his stewardship, the Bank of Industry has orchestrated a profound transformation of Nigeria’s industrial landscape, primarily by offering accessible long-term financing and counter-cyclical loans across diverse sectors of the Nigerian economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the past five years, Mr. Pitan has spearheaded several groundbreaking transactions in both the Nigerian capital market and the international financial arena, contributing significantly to Nigeria’s economic development. During his tenure, the Bank of Industry has successfully secured approximately $5 billion from the international market through syndications and the bond market in the past four years. Furthermore, under his dynamic leadership, the bank has been unwavering in its commitment to promoting financial inclusion, catalyzing the expansion of over 3 million enterprises, ultimately generating employment opportunities for more than 7 million Nigerians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Pitan shared this prestigious honor with other distinguished figures at the International Forum on African-Caribbean Leadership (IFAL) in New York. Among those recognized were H.E. Dr. Mohamed Irfaan Ali, President of Guyana; H.E. Muhammad B. S. Jallow, Vice President of The Gambia; and Hon. Jose Gon\u00e7alves, Minister for Sea, Culture, and Tourism, Cabo Verde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event in New York gathered a multitude of high-level policymakers, business leaders, and diplomatic figures, including H.E. Dr. Mamadou Tangara, Minister of Foreign Affairs of The Gambia; Serign Modou Njie, Minister of Defense, The Gambia; Amb. Dr. Lamin B. Dibba, The Gambian Ambassador to the United Nations; Amb. Momodou Lamine Bah, The Gambian Ambassador to the United States; Dr. Anselmo Monteiro, President of the National Institute of Social Security, Angola; Prof. Yakubu Ochefu, Secretary-General of the Committee of Vice Chancellors of Nigerian Universities; and Mrs. Kanayo Awani, Executive Vice President of Intra-African Trade at Afrexim Bank, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The International Forum on African-Caribbean Leadership (IFAL) represents a flagship annual event organized by African Leadership Magazine. For eight years, this event has served as a vital platform connecting world leaders, particularly from Africa and the Caribbean nations, policymakers, and private sector visionaries. IFAL focuses on addressing the challenges and progress of African people, strengthening trans-regional cooperation between Africa and the Caribbean nations, forging strategic partnerships, and fostering bilateral cooperation. Additionally, it enhances engagement in trade and investments, innovation and technology transfer, culture and tourism, and various other sectors of paramount importance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
