Okowa also commended the UBA and Heirs Holdings boss for his contributions to the empowerment of youths in Delta and for his bank's Corporate Social Responsibility projects, especially the turning around of the aesthetics of Asaba.
"Tony, you are a pride of Delta, and I must commend you for your economic philosophy of Africapitalism, which encapsulates private sector's commitment to the economic transformation of Africa through long-term investments.
