United Bank for Africa (UBA) chairman, Tony Elumelu has earned Belgium’s oldest and most important national honour, as he was conferred with the honourary distinction of Officer in the Order of Leopold.
Elumelu made this known on Monday, November 16, 2020, when he made this known via his verified Twitter page.
Elumelu said; “Last night, the Kingdom of Belgium conferred on me with the honorary distinction of Officer in the Order of Leopold, the country’s oldest and most important National Honour.”
“I am humbled by this recognition of the work @TonyElumeluFDN in catalysing entrepreneurs across Africa and will continue to drive the economic empowerment of our brilliant young #Africanentrepreneurs to propel development in Africa.”
No doubt, his foundation has transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands young African entrepreneurs who have been given the support needed to start off in their areas of specialisation in business.
