Oliseh to ring closing bell at the Nigerian Stock Exchange

Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, will perform the significant ringing of the bell at the closing of business at the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) on Monday, August 17.

Oliseh will attend the event at the NSE in Lagos in the company of Amaju Pinnick, president of the Nigeria Football Federation and vice presidents Seyi Akinwunmi and Shehu Dikko.

“The ringing of the bell at the closing of business at the Nigerian Stock Exchange floor is a very significant event,” Pinnick said.

“It means that Corporate Nigeria is warming up to Nigeria football as a result of extensive consultations that we have been making over the past months.”

It is the first time the NSE would offer a Nigeria football personality such a gesture, and Pinnick says it is the beginning of what would turn out to be a wonderful relationship between corporate Nigeria and the country’s football.

“We are looking at taking this to a level where even clubs in the Nigeria League will be quoted on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. It is a gradual process, but we will get there.”
