Dr May’s Philosophy and Secret ofSuccess \u2022 A tested leader and professional guru with track record of success, high profile achievements and success. In discharging his responsibilities, he is always guided by strong organizational and result oriented capabilities, interpersonal communication skills, industry, dedicated focus and resourceful team spirit with a bias for principles of fairness, armed with the might of a ‘combatant’. He strives to make a difference any where he goes. In APCON he aimed at protecting consumers nationwide. To achieve this, the council is being repositioned as a proactive regulator that is capable of discharging its statutory responsibilities through capacity building, staff reoriented and accessibility to stake holders. This has led to the decentralisation of the services and study centres along the six geopolitical zones. \u2022 Conceding to the influence of professionals in the society, Dr Nzeribe charged them to be exemplary in the observance of ethical principles, noting that every profession demands a high degree of discipline from its members, saying if this is duly allowed, the nation will be the better for it.

He believes in taking advertising profession to greater heights; a profession that will attract the best of brains and resourceful personnel. His knack for challenges knows no bounds. \u2022 Dr May Nzeribe is happily married with children. He is a rare gem and a role model in whom NDIGBO hope that the young generation would learn from his good example and win good reputation for Igbo Nation in particular and Africa in general. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","categories":[749,452],"writer":[],"class_list":["post-17962","biography","type-biography","status-publish","hentry","category-administrator","category-media"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blerf.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/biography\/17962","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blerf.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/biography"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blerf.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/biography"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blerf.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blerf.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/biography\/17962\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blerf.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17962"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blerf.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17962"},{"taxonomy":"writer","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blerf.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/writer?post=17962"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
