The election of new president of the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators of Nigeria (ICSAN), Mrs Funmi Ekunday, is another milestone for womenfolk and a reward for excellence and hard work, Kwara state governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq.
Mrs Ekundayo, a native of Obbo-Aiyegunle town in Ekiti local government area of the state, is the first female president of the body.
“We are excited by the election of Mrs. Ekundayo as the first-ever female president of the prestigious professional body. But her emergence did not come as a surprise, it is a reward for her unbeatable track record of excellence, consistency, and character with which she has blazed the trails over the years,” a Government House statement on Sunday said.
“On behalf of the people and government of Kwara state, His Excellency, the governor congratulates Mrs. Ekundayo on her strides, and for being a pride of Kwara and of the illustrious family of the late Professor Funsho Adaramola, an authority in international law. This feat again shows clearly that Mrs. Ekundayo, herself a consummate lawyer, is indeed a chip off the old block and we are glad to associate with her. We beseech God to continue to guide her, and make her new leadership role a huge success,” the statement reads in part.
