Mr GRA said his transformation agenda will help to uplift the professional body according to the vision of the founding fathers where professionalism is the core value and watchword.
According to GRA, ” It is time to reposition, repackage and regenerate FIBAN for the digital task this century demands to service the community through information, education and entertainment.”
He highlighted the focus of his administration when elected to include capacity building and development for members (which include training and retraining), welfare packages, and professional exposure, among others.
He however called on FIBAN members and delegates to vote rightly by ensuring they cast their vote for him during the election slated to hold in Ado Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital, on Friday, January 13, 2023.
He also admonished the association’s electoral body, FIBANEC to ensure a free, fair and credible election.
While praying to God for the safety of all participants that will be travelling, he thanked all FIBAN members for their readiness and commitment to join the transformation train.
