Eminent Journalist, Dr. Ngozi Anyaegbunam is Dead!

With gratitude to God for a life well spent, we announce the untimely death of Dr. Ngozi Fidelia Anyaegbunam after a brief illness. 

A trailblazing journalist who had editorial stints with Champion Newspaper (1st female editor) and The Daily Times (where she authored the book Waziri Ibrahim: Politics Without Bitterness), Ngozi was born in October 1957 at Damaturu in modern day Yobe State to George and Victoria Anyaegbunam. 

Subsequent to these, she became a full-time media management consultant to numerous blue-chip companies.

She also held the distinction of being a female print media journalist to interview two sitting Presidents of Nigeria (Olusegun Obasanjo and Muhammadu Buhari). 

A dedicated and loving mother, grandmother, sister, cousin and friend, Auntie Ngozi will be sorely missed by all who came across her and were impacted by her larger-than-life presence. 

Rest in Peace till we meet to part no more!! 

Funeral arrangements will be announced by the family. 

Signed, 

Rocky C Agbese (Son) 

For the Family.

Headline Inflation Accelerates in April; Rises to 22-month High

The MPC concluded its third seating for the year with all policy rates left unchanged save the Cash Reserve Requirement (CRR) which was harmonized to 31.0%. This was in contrast to the previous 20.0% on private sector deposit and 75.0% public sector deposit (35.0% effective rate as at February 2015). We expect the equities market to react positively to this, given its implied impact on interest income of banking tickers going forward.
