The Registrar General/Chief Executive Office (CEO) CAC, Alhaji Garba Abubakar, said this in a statement by the commission’s Head of Media, Rasheed Mahe, on Thursday.
“The award is in recognition of CAC’s immense contribution and support towards the Federal Government’s ease of doing business reform intervention.
