Iwuanyanwu said, “I have great joy and pleasure in thanking you and congratulating you on this occasion of the 35th Annual General Meeting of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria, Anambra, Enugu and Ebonyi States Branch. Over the years, the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria has played a major role in shaping the destiny of Nigeria.

“I think, frankly speaking, that today there are a lot of challenges and the hope of the total transformation of the economy of the Southeast and Nigeria, would depend on the activities of most of your members. 

We have achieved a lot in the economy of trading. I think this is the right time to diversify and go into manufacturing. This is why I congratulate you.

“Fortunately, you are under a very able leadership; Mrs Ada Chukwudozie, is a young lady whom I have known for many years. She is very brilliant, resourceful and indeed, one of the most successful businesswomen in this country. She is a source of pride not only to her husband and family but to womanhood and Nigerians at large. I want to congratulate her for her initiative and efforts.

“I regret that I am unable to attend due to circumstances beyond my control. But I want to assure the Manufacturers Association, that as the president general of Ohaneze Nd’Igbo, I will do everything possible to support every good programme that will emanate from your 35th convention.

“I thank you also, for honouring me with an award. May God bless you. May God bless Nigeria.”
