She said, “There is the need for women accountants across the federation to use their innate talents as mothers, as well as the ethics of their profession, to effect positive changes necessary for ethical rebirth and financial discipline in public service across the country.
“Let me express my happiness as a senior member of SWAN to your various contributions to the growth of our society; your association, despite being a non-profit-making, has done a lot in assisting the underprivileged, as well as standing against all forms of abuses against women.”
The National President of SWAN, Felicia Bamigbose said the visit was aimed at identifying with the success made by the permanent secretary as one of their members.
