Leadership

Victor Ekpenyong speaking at the Air Force Secondary School Port Harcourt prize giving, Class of 2024

Dr. Victor Ekpenyong

Founder & Chief Executive Officer
"A key feature of our response model is transparency across all stages of response to the incident. We ensured that we factored in crucial pointers such as the size and type of spill and the environmental and economic sensitivities of the resources at risk — to avoid lasting damage on the waterways, as the affected aquaculture is a major source of livelihood for the people of the community."
