The appointment was made by African leaders as part of efforts to address the continent’s governance challenges.‏

Prof. Moghalu, who has been a prominent figure in Nigerian economic policy and international relations, brings a wealth of experience to his new role at ASG.

He served as the Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria from 2009 to 2014, where he was instrumental in banking reforms and enhancing the country’s financial stability.

His academic background, including a professorship in international business and public policy at The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University, further bolsters his qualifications to lead ASG.

Peter Obi in a statement on his X account, expressed confidence that Prof. Moghalu will contribute significantly to the school’s mission.

“As the pioneer president of ASG, Prof. Moghalu will draw on his wealth of knowledge and experience to contribute to addressing the continent’s pressing governance challenges by offering a world-class education in public policy and governance, equipping emerging leaders with the mindsets, skills, and knowledge required for effective leadership of Africa’s future,” Obi said.

The issue of governance in Africa remains a significant concern for many. Peter Obi, who has been an advocate for good governance and transparency throughout his political career, emphasized the importance of institutions like ASG in shaping the future of leadership in Africa.

He acknowledged that both Africa and Nigeria have been heavily burdened by poor governance and leadership failures for decades.

According to Obi, institutions like the African School of Governance are crucial in building a new generation of African leaders who will be competent, capable, and committed to the continent’s development.

“Africa, and indeed, our dear country Nigeria, has remained greatly burdened by poor governance and leadership failure.

Institutions like these, which address the continent’s governance challenges, are critical to building a new generation of African leaders who will be competent, capable, and committed to the development of the continent,” Obi remarked.

He concluded his message with prayers for Prof. Moghalu, asking for God’s wisdom, strength, and grace to guide him in his new role. “May God give Prof Moghalu the wisdom, strength, and grace to succeed in his new position,” Obi added.

Peter Obi’s closing message, “A New Nigeria, and indeed Africa, is possible,” highlights his continued belief that real change can happen if visionary leaders and effective institutions are in place to guide the continent toward better governance.
