Meeting the President of the Cyprus-Turkish Chamber of Commerce and adding my MBA thesis to their Library

Monday, 6 March 2023, is not a day I am not going to forget in a hurry. A boy from Ayobo, Alimosho in Lagos, Nigeria, met Turgay Deniz, the President of the TRNC Chamber of Commerce- Kıbrıs Türk Ticaret Odası Turkish Cypriot Chamber of Commerce.

After completing my MBA thesis on “Impact of Digital Marketing on SMEs and MSMEs in Cyprus International University, Lefkosa, North Cyprus” last year with my supervisor- Assoc. Prof. Dr. Figen Yeşilada, my MBA thesis was recommended by one of the directors to be added to the KTTO’s library so other consultants, KTTO directors & business owners can refer to and draw from my research.

For context: KTTO = Kibris Turk Ticaret Odasi OR Turkish Cypriot Chamber of Commerce Kıbrıs Türk Ticaret Odası — KTTO / TCCC

I am particularly grateful to my forever valentine and the love of my life, the KTTO President- Turgay Deniz (right of me), my MBA Supervisor- Figen Akça Yesilada (Extreme left), my friend Temel Üngör, KTTO Board Members- Evren Günsel, Alp Cengiz Alp, Omaç Cin and Secretary General of the Chamber Aysun Önet İleri and everyone who contributed in one way or another to make this possible.

The shirt I am wearing was designed and sewn by Zinelle Zibah Couture- A Nigerian fashion designer in the TRNC. At least, I represented Nigeria small abi?
