Effective January 1, 2021, I was appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors of @Abumet.Nigeria Ltd.

I am deeply honored at the responsibility to lead this great company to new frontiers.

Taking up this baton is easier because of the foundation laid by our outgoing board chair, Alhaji DR. Bamanga Tukur CON. I look forward to a successful and impactful tenure with the executive management and my fellow directors.

2021!!! Hope renewed. Feeling like myself again.

2021!!!

Hope renewed. Feeling like myself again. This year, my impetus hasn’t been manic planning but rather channeled towards being more present.

Sir Francis Bacon aptly frames how I intend to live this year -

“Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand--and melting like a snowflake...”

So I pray that this year, amidst all that is happening, we live our moments. Fully. That they will bring us happy things. Joyful things. Moments that make our hearts sing.

Happy New Year 🎊

It has been a sober, heartbreaking time reading th

It has been a sober, heartbreaking time reading the posts and watching the videos of police brutality in Nigeria. Yet, the emotions I have experienced are nothing compared to what victims and their loved ones have dealt with over the years. The time to redress this has been long overdue.

It is inspiring to see citizens standing up for our collective rights, demanding reforms, and leading the charge on change. Whether we see the direct connections or not, what affects one of us affects all of us. In the same way, the future being written today will benefit us all. We all have a part to play in ensuring that future is realised.

I believe that soon our nation will be one where the sanctity of lives is upheld by one and all. I believe because, today, young people are writing the blueprint for that future. It is evident in the conduct of the peaceful protests, the organisation, and even the little things like post-protest clean-ups.

There is hope anew in Nigeria.

These efforts musnt be thwarted.

The call to #EndSARS and #EndPoliceBrutalityInNigeria will usher in a new day for us all.

Any guesses where I am?

JBN Portrait 2020. As a little girl growing up in

JBN Portrait 2020.

As a little girl growing up in Lagos, I remember seeing large blue concrete squares perched on roadsides, with ‘B’ written on them in white. These concrete squares resonated with me because they represented my first initial and my favorite color, blue. Easily one of the most identifiable brands, I soon learnt that those squares signified the work (or efforts) of the construction company, Julius Berger.

As the years went by, quality and excellence became attributes synonymous with this company. I would hear statements like “Only JB can do that” and “If you want the best, go to JB”. As JBN celebrates 50 years today, I am filled with an overwhelming sense of pride to serve on the board of this iconic organization.

One thing is for sure; virtual meetings are the new normal!

Since the start of this pandemic, most of us have been in multiple virtual meetings. How has the experience been for you? Are you more confident speaking up or do you struggle to get your voice heard? Is it easier or harder to fall into Groupthink?

Fear. Oppression. Pain. Sorrow. Injustice.

The stark representation of the reality we face because of our gender and race.

Staying silent is no longer an option.

A collective stand is a MUST.

@warif_ng @standtoendrape have long taken a stand, thank you. #SayNoToRape #SayNoToRacism #BlackoutTuesday

Please take a stand. 🙏🏾

Our God is Marching On!

A hymn so apt; assurance that we will overcome this battle.

Glad that @victor_odetunde (sax), @uwanaetuk (trumpet), @ita.samson (double bass) and I could make this happen virtually. Hopefully more to come?😊 Happy Sunday 🙏🏾 PS: Headphones on for a robust listening experience !

Barefaced. In my lockdown uniform. Hair braided myself. With a thankful heart.

Gratitude. An attitude that I’ve been conscious to display despite the past 30 days being so unnatural.

This gratitude extends to all the frontline workers who get up each day to head to work despite their fears and anxieties.

This gratitude extends to those who aren’t leaving their houses but whose job functions are nonetheless important.

Thank you. We appreciate you. We applaud you.

Happy Workers’ Day!

On the eve of the official lockdown as directed by

On the eve of the official lockdown as directed by the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Mallam @MuhammaduBuhari I am rounding up the day charging the @TheGloNation Call Centre team for the task ahead.

In these challenging times and @GlobacomLimited being one of the few running its own call centre in the country, we’ve had to make the very hard decision of putting people on ground to keep our services running - our network provides the backbone to keep people connected. All the virtual meetings, virtual dates, use of social media are only possible because a few will remain on the frontline to ensure uninterrupted service.

To this end, I encourage my team and thank them for being on the frontline. We didn’t anticipate the magnitude of this pandemic but the safety of our people has always been our number one priority. Precautionary measures are in place to ensure utmost safety, and the situation is being monitored constantly. It’s a sensitive time and people are worried - even I’ve had my moments of anxiety. What I do know is that we will pull through.

On behalf of the Mike Adenuga Foundation (MAF), I visited the Executive Governor of Lagos, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu to deliver the sum of N500 million to support the states fight against the global Coronavirus pandemic, otherwise known as COVID-19.

My father, Dr. Mike Adenuga through his foundation is committed to the wellbeing of Nigerian citizens, especially at this time when the country grapples to contain the Coronavirus pandemic. He commends the efforts being made by the government, individuals and organizations to tackle the challenge.

MAF has contributed N1 Billion to the Central Bank of Nigeria and will continue its on-going effort to assist various bodies and institutions in the country with essential requirements to combat the pandemic.

No doubt life as we know it has been altered. There’s no telling when circumstances will return to normal.

I salute all our workers in essential industries who continue to go about their jobs just so that we retain a bit of normalcy amidst this pandemic.

Before COVID-19, I was juggling 100 things – Struggling to stay ahead of the tide balancing my career, personal goals and commitments as a wife and mother.

I reminded myself of a pledge I adopted this year; one I say aloud quite often: “I am acting on commitments and not feelings” (B.P. Moran). When this is over, the goal is, through resilience, to have created a better version of yourself.

It may be a bit difficult but try not to let fear and paranoia hold you back.

Working from home? Establish the tasks you must complete. Line managers should establish weekly KPIs and guide their teams on goals they are to accomplish.

Work done? Try out a new recipe, have movie night with your kids or loved ones, read a new book.

What will I be doing besides the working? Collaborating virtually, crossing off my « to-bake » list, working on a paper maché project with my kids, listening to new podcasts and reading.

We must stay apart yet stay connected, to ensure Safety for All.

EVONIG GLASS, processed and assembled by Abumet in our modern factory in Abuja is the first of its kind in Nigeria. It looks to revolutionize the building industry, eliminating long lead times and high import costs for quality double-glazed glass, while simultaneously progressing industry innovation and made-in-Nigeria solutions.

This past Thursday, after many months of incredible work by the entire team, we were pleased to launch our proprietary new product into the Nigerian market.

Last Saturday, I facilitated @CobblestonePropertie

Last Saturday, I facilitated @CobblestoneProperties’ 2020 strategy session. We reflected, dug deep, and held candid discussions on how to chart our success for the year ahead. We engaged in Process Mapping; plotting our « As Is » against our « Should Be », clearly identifying the gaps between. We also redefined our organizational culture and came up with some pretty cool stuff that we pledged to stay true to!

Most of all, we had a fun and enlightening session filled with open communication and collaboration, arming us for a progressive 2020.
