PRESS STATEMENT
EAST AFRICAN BUSINESS COUNCIL
EABC MOURNS THE DEATH OF EABC CHAIRMAN EMERITUS DR. REGINALD MENGI
2ND MAY 2019,
ARUSHA, TANZANIA
The East African Business Council (EABC) Board
of Directors and Management conveys deepest sympathy to the family, friends and
the entire IPP Group of Companies for the loss of Chairman Dr. Reginal Mengi.
Words
cannot express enough this tragic loss of Dr. Reginald Mengi who served as the Board
Chairman of the EABC for the year 2008-2009. He was an adorable, kind, philanthropic,
intelligent, mentor, media leader, industry champion and business leader. As EABC
Chairman, he re-energized optimism in regional integration by spearheading
private sector views to be incorporated in the
EAC Common Market Protocol and advocated for its signing. He established
the East African Media Summit & Awards in a bid to raise awareness on the
benefits of EAC region integration to the East African people.
His
passing is a great loss to the East African business community, the people of
East Africa and those who strongly believe in borderless East Africa. His vast
knowledge and experience in regional integration will always be cherished; it is our duty to follow his footsteps and vision for
the growth and prosperity for the East African people.
Our prayers and thoughts are with the family,
friends and the IPP Group of Companies.
