Convener of Confab’26 and Publisher of SUPERNEWS Nigeria, Ngozi Onyeakusi, thanked the organisations for their confidence in the media platform and their commitment to promoting meaningful conversations around national development.
She said the strong support from the institutions underscored the growing relevance of the SUPERNEWS Annual Conference as a veritable platform for policy dialogue, stakeholder engagement and promotion of excellence across various sectors of the economy.
She commended NLNG and Leadway Assurance Company Limited for being consistent in supporting the SUPERNEWS Nigeria Annual Conference.
Onyeakusi equally appreciated other organisations and individuals who have, in one way or the other, supported SUPERNEWS Nigeria in the past.
The event, she said, would attract regulators, operators, sectors’ chief executives, policymakers, civil societies, media practitioners, students, among other stakeholders.
She said the conference has, over the years, evolved into one of the nation’s respected platforms for discussing economic issues, recognising excellence and fostering collaboration among stakeholders from both the public and private sectors.
Beyond the keynote presentation and panel discussion, this year’s conference would be of special significance as it marks the 10th Anniversary of SUPERNEWS Nigeria.
The 10th Anniversary was described as “a decade of dedicated journalism, credible reporting and sustained advocacy for excellence across Nigeria’s financial, insurance, oil and gas and telecommunications sectors.”
As part of the activities marking the anniversary celebration, SUPERNEWS Nigeria will, at the conference, recognise outstanding contributions by organisations that have distinguished themselves through innovation, regulation, leadership and service excellence.
“Over the past 10 years, SUPERNEWS Nigeria has evolved into one of the country’s respected media platforms, consistently providing insightful analysis, promoting informed public discourse and fostering stronger collaboration among regulators, operators, policymakers and industry stakeholders,” it was stated in a release.
Reflecting on the milestone, Onyeakusi, described the forthcoming 10th Anniversary as a celebration of resilience and professionalism.
She noted that the 10th Anniversary was not only an opportunity to celebrate past achievements but also to reaffirm SUPERNEWS Nigeria’s commitment to responsible journalism, policy advocacy and creating platforms that stimulate constructive dialogue for national development.
As anticipation builds ahead of the July 7 event, stakeholders across various sectors were expected to converge in Lagos for what promised to be a robust exchange of ideas and a celebration of excellence in corporate leadership, public service and economic development.
