deans-class-meets-at-emba-reunion

The first five classes of the Executive MBA at LBS (EMBA 1 -5) held a reunion in Lagos over the weekend. 

Dean of LBS, Enase Okonedo, whose own class was involved, attended with Prof. Albert Alos, Vice-Chancellor of Pan-African University, Dr Christopher Kolade, Pro-Chancellor of the University and his wife.

Over 80 alumni, spouses, friends and other members of the LBS faculty were present. Also present was Mr Tunde Dabiri, President of the LBS Alumni Association.
 
It had been more than ten years since most of the alumni had been together, and like any other celebration class pictures were taken, and the reunion cake was cut after dinner. 

The event also included a raffle draw with a star price of an Emirates return ticket to Dubai courtesy of Golden Tours and Travels. The price was won by Mrs Jumoke Adenowo, a spouse of an alumnus and also one herself.

Showing appreciation on behalf of the EMBA 1-5 classes, Mr Opeyemi Agbaje, class president of EMBA-1 said it had been an excellent event and an opportunity to catch up.

"We are conversant with our responsibilities in terms of the endowment fund and the mentoring programme, and will be sharing our thoughts in terms of what we will do for the School in addition."
