During the ceremony which held at the Dr Alex Ekwueme Square in Awka, the commissioner while addressing guests said that throughout the period of his service, he has equipped himself through trainings, both in Nigeria and abroad, including financial education, leading to the founding of an investment club, Alpha Trust Investment Club in 2018. He said the club currently has investments worth over N20 billion, and that as he retires, he is going into business full time.
We didn't achieve anything through individual efforts but with other sister agencies. 'In 2028, I founded an investment club, Alpha Trust Investment Club Limited. We started it with a modest sum of N54 million, but today we have investments worth over N20 billion. That will be my full time business from Wednesday May 1. We have been investing and now we want to go into full time business and we will in the next 10 years give Dangote a run for his money,' Adeoye said.
