On 10 January,2020, exactly five years ago, the maiden edition of The Commerce Africa debuted.
For the benefit of those that are not aware,The Commerce Africa Magazine is a publication of Toastmasters Communications Ltd which was incorporated in 2018 as an integrated communications company.Its subsidiary includes Cicero School Of Oratory.
The whole idea of the incorporation of Toastmasters Communications Ltd was part of the plan to fashion out Strategies that would make my retirement, which at the time was a year away. I reasoned that having served my country and attained the mandatory retirement age, what remained was for me to work towards bequeathing structures and institutions for posterity.
For The Commerce Africa that is five years today, it was intended to be a specialized financial Intelligence publication focused on Industry, Trade and Investment in Africa, generally and Nigeria in particular.
The Commerce Africa runs a 24/7 online version and a quarterly publication.To the glory of the Almighty God, we have recorded not less than twenty editions within the period under review.
We are on course consistent with our slogan of “ Renaissance Africa “ to highlight developments that point to the way forward for emancipation of African Continent from the clutches of neocolonial domination.
At this juncture, the editorial board of The Commerce Africa wishes to profoundly thank our supporters for their patronage and continued goodwill. We assure you that, we will commit to continuous improvement and ways that will popularize genuine efforts to improve the living conditions of our people.
We remain committed to the best tenets of journalism and will ensure that we remain focused on issues that will uplift the economy of African countries and Nigeria in particular.
God is our sufficiency.
