JUST IN: Ex-CBN Deputy Governor Gets New Appointment
Former Deputy governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, Kingsley Moghalu has been appointed as the inaugural president of the newly established African School of Governance (ASG).
This was revealed by the school in a statement issued on Sunday.
Based in Kigali, Rwanda, the ASG aims to revolutionise governance across the continent by offering world-class public policy education and research programmes tailored to African realities.
Mr Moghalu, an accomplished academic and former United Nations official, will lead the institution as it seeks to address pressing governance challenges in Africa.
The statement reads: “We are excited to welcome Kingsley Moghalu as President of the African School of Governance. His sterling track record of leadership in international and national policymaking institutions, and academia, as his thought leadership influence, will help make ASG a transformative graduate school and develop a new generation of purpose-driven leaders with the skills and mindsets to help Africa address the challenges of the 21st Century,” Makhtar Diop, managing director of the IFC and Chair of ASG’s Board.
It said Mr Moghalu’s leadership will be instrumental in realising the ASG’s mission to offer cutting-edge academic programmes, innovative research, and policy engagement.
With a focus on empowering African leaders through education and innovation, Mr Moghalu is expected to play a central role in establishing ASG as a hub for intellectual growth and policy solutions on the continent.
The ASG initiative, launched by key African leaders, including President Paul Kagame of Rwanda and former Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn, is designed to foster a new generation of leaders equipped with the skills and mindsets necessary to drive sustainable development and governance reform across the continent
