Speaking during the ceremony, the chief executive officer, NGX, Mr Temi Popoola, emphasised that the late Subomi Balogun was a blessing to the capital market.
“We are here to pay tribute to somebody that without him, we really cannot talk about our markets and I am sure that there are many careers here that he helped shaped and mine is a good example. “We cannot express our gratitude to him enough for what he did to help our industry expand. It is difficult to locate another family in Nigeria like the Subomis that can represent on the Exchange as they doing now. We are very grateful and we assure them that they can count on our support going forward as the family continues to drive their strategic goals,” Popoola said.
Also, the chairman of NGX Group, Alhaji Umaru Kwairanga, noted that, Subomi had played a significant role in the development of investment banking in Nigeria and had laid the foundation for many of the nation’s first equity offerings while working at ICON Securities, saying, “he leaves a significant legacy and a number of monuments that would serve as evidence of his greatness well into the future.
The group chief executive officer, NGX Group, Oscar Onyema, said the market could take solace in the fact that Subomi led a great life and left a huge legacy that the capital market community will continue to talk about for years to come.
