    Bad commentators... Think before you comment, read in between lines before you comment... For them to have invited him should mean a whole lot more to you, meaning that they saw an economist value in him.. He is rich and as such, should be able to lecture others money wise.. The language he used in communicating to them ain't your business...besides its calabar, so its English... Every wealthy person should be an economist like Aliko Dangote,most musicians,actors,models name it.. Even the president..you musnt study Economics before you can lecture on Economic issues..

    This has nothing to do with the schools they went to. Anyone who started from the scratch to build an empire for him or herself should be able to say something about entrepreneurship. That I can say P Square did so in their own way they can share their experience for these new CBN hires to take a cue from. Well done Peter Okoye!
