Bello stated that his father finds it tough to compromise and has a principled and determined attitude to decision-making in an interview with Seun Okinbaloye on Mic On Podcast. He pointed to a number of distinguished administrators, his father among them, that he thought were influential leaders. Among the people he mentioned were Mohammed Sanusi II, Dora Akunyili, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, and Nuhu Ribadu.

Those are the people I look up to, leaders that leave an impact and lasting legacy”. CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
