In what is said to be in keeping with his dedicated efforts to ensure financial inclusion and economic prosperity for the majority of Nigerians, President Bola Tinubu has approved the appointment of 36-year-old Uzoma Nwagba as the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Consumer Credit Corporation.
A statement by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, Ajuri Ngelale, said the appointee holds a Master’s of Business Administration from the Harvard Business School and a first-class Bachelor’s of Engineering from Howard University, Washington DC.
Before his appointment, Engineer Nwagba served as the Chief Operating Officer of the Bank of Industry, in charge of driving micro-credit and other financial interventions at the institution.
Engineer Nwagba was a Software Engineer at Microsoft where he led multiple teams charged with building enterprise and mobile software for emerging markets.
Ngelale said the President expects the new CEO of this critical agency to bring to bear his wealth of experience in finance and technology, as well as his record in driving financial interventions across Nigeria in this new role to expand access to credit to all classes of Nigerian citizens while promoting financial inclusion, and enhancing the quality of life of the Nigerian people
