“Adu, a diligent economic professional and Certified Financial Analyst,
CFA, passed on last week Saturday after a period of illness.

himself condoles with his wife, children, mother and the entire family.
He prays that God will grant them the fortitude to bear the loss.
“Before he joined the Buhari presidency last year, Adu was the Chief
Executive Officer of Morgan Capital Securities Ltd, a leading
investment firm with headquarters in Lagos.
“As a member of the President’s Economic Management Team and a
presidential aide deployed to the Office of the Vice President, Adu
would be remembered as a patriotic, forthright, creative and astute
professional. He will indeed be sorely missed.
