The objective of the award scheme, among other things, is to provide top CEOs in Africa with a form of a benchmark for assessing their performance both in “quantitative considerations, public image and appreciation when compared against their peers elsewhere on the Continent.

According to the organisers, Prof Goski Alabi’s laurel was in recognition of her enormous contributions to Tertiary Education, particularly Open Distance and Education in West Africa.
