Dr. Sanda joined the Company in 2013 as the Chief Treasury and Taxation Officer. She later became the Chief Accounting Officer, where she contributed immensely to the company’s growth by implementing revenue generation initiatives and overseeing critical projects.
Dr. Sanda is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria, Institute of Management Consultants, US and Institute of Professional Financial Managers, London. She is also an Associate Member of the Risk Management Association of Nigeria and the Institute of Directors, Nigeria.
