Another recipient of the Award, Mr. Obinna Ukonu, the Business Solutions and Systems Director, Nigerian Bottling Company, and Winner, CIO of the year – Consumer Goods & Retail, held that “receiving the Award has helped to elevate my visibility and presence, and has also allowed me to connect with other IT leaders and thought leaders within the industry”.

The jury is chaired by Mr. Ade Bajomo, Executive Director, Access Bank Plc, with Mrs. Onyinye Ikenna-Emeka of MTN as vice-chairman.
