I knew it!!!! When Tony was 'forced' out of UBA by the CBN regulation back the, I said to a colleague that he will be breaking new ground because he is resourceful and a massive risk taker. I've had the opportunity to meet him twice and I learned a lot from him. No wonder china biggest bank partnered with UBA when they wanted to enter Nigeria market( for easy financing of big chinese companies operating here)

OGA tony I still remember those words you said to me: continue to work smart and efficiently till you don't have to introduce yourself to anyone....TIMELESS!!!!

Does first class guarantee overall achievement.

Paper qualification is insignificant and is not a parameter for attaining success but your ability to expand your capabilities in diverse sphere of endeavour to accomplish result.

May be Bill Gate also got 1st class from Harvard!!!

This man sef. He didn't accomplish anything extraordinary as UBA helmsman, but I must admit that he is highly adept at personal branding and 'strategic positioning'.

He is a very smooth operator.

Hmmm.... The biggest capitalist. UBA enslaved its workers for years and didn't pay well until this year. Many contract staff used as cheap labour while those at the top high filled their pockets through policies which favoured only them. Greed!

I can never envy such people. He also can never be my role model.

If proper investigation where to be carried out and the public notified, such people will not receive any public praise.
