Transition of Leadership

Support and Collaboration

Welcoming Arc. Dangiwa, Shelter Afrique’s Board Chairperson, Dr. Chii Akporji, assured the Minister of the Board of Directors, Management, and Staff’s support. Dr. Akporji emphasized the organization’s commitment to working closely with the Minister’s Office to ensure the success of his tenure.

Key Initiatives and Outstanding Obligations

Dr. Akporji briefed Arc. Dangiwa on Shelter Afrique’s operations in Nigeria, including the historic Naira-denominated bond launched early last year.

He also discussed other important initiatives, such as the Statutes Revision Process, seeking the Minister’s strong support for the approval of the Agreement document, a critical step toward consolidating the organization’s growth.

Furthermore, Dr. Akporji noted the organization’s need for the Minister’s intervention in addressing Nigeria’s outstanding capital subscription of US$21 million, approved by the previous administration but yet to be released by the end of its tenure.

“We have briefed Arc. Dangiwa on Shelter Afrique’s operations in Nigeria including the historic Naira-denominated bond which debuted early last year. We have also briefed the Minister on other key undertakings within the Organization – including the Statutes Revision Process, which we would like to seek his strong support for the approval of the Agreement document. This is necessary for consolidating the gains made so far in placing Shelter Afrique on a solid path to growth,” added Dr. Akporji.

Nigeria’s Role as a Key Stakeholder

Currently, Nigeria is the second-largest shareholder of Shelter Afrique, following Kenya.
