The President of ICSAN, Mrs. Funmi Ekundayo, performed the sod-turning ceremony, marking a significant milestone in the institute’s history.
The four-storey building is designed to provide a conducive environment for ICSAN members, staff, and stakeholders to interact, learn, and share ideas on best practices in corporate governance, administration, and leadership.

“Our mission is the promotion and advancement of the efficient administration of commerce, industry, public, private, and non-governmental establishments through the continued development of the study and practice of corporate secretaryship and administration.
“The new National Secretariat building is expected to be completed shortly, and it will feature state-of-the-art facilities, including a modern auditorium, conference rooms, library, and offices. The building will also be designed to be environmentally sustainable and accessible, reflecting ICSAN’s commitment to excellence and inclusivity.”
