Mrs Ememobong who is the immediate past Vice Chairman and third chairman of the institute in the state succeeds Ime Asibong who just concluded a two-year tenure.
Speaking shortly after her investiture conducted by Justice Ntong Ntong in Uyo on Tuesday, Ememobong declared her emergence an opportunity to dictate to history by positively changing the face of corporate governance within her jurisdiction.
The policy reformer and maritime law expert who identified lack of transparency and the utilization of unskilled personnel as bane of the nation’s development trajectory, said her administration is poised to make great efforts at changing such a displeasing narrative through extensive sensitization campaigns and frequent trainings.
She acknowledged contributions of past leaders of the chapter to the development of the Institute and pledged to run an all-inclusive governance to actualize desired goals.
“Permit me to quickly state that it is our administration, not my administration. Our knowledge of corporate governance would have come to naught if we personalise powers in ICSAN. The chairman is merely the rallying point of the chapter.
“In this regard, it is needful to appeal to other Executive Committee members and indeed the entire members of ICSAN in Akwa Ibom State to see me as first amongst equals. I will welcome advice, observations, questions amongst other time-tested processes of leading a credible institute like ours,” she said
In his opening remarks, chairman on the occasion and Deputy Governor of the state, Mr Moses Ekpo, expressed optimism that Ememobong would bring her wealth of experience to drive the institute to desired height.
