The announcement that Ambassador Alhaji Salamu Amadu, Founder and President of the Afro-Arab Group of Companies, has been named one of the 2024 100 Most Influential Africans by the Pan African Youth Leadership Foundation has sparked excitement and gratitude.
In a recent interview, Ambassador Salamu Amadu expressed his appreciation to the organizers for recognizing his contributions, attributing the honor to the guidance of the Almighty. For him, such accolades reinforce the commitment to making meaningful impacts on his home country and the broader African continent.
Sharing the prestigious list with counterparts from Nigeria, South Sudan, The Gambia, Namibia, and beyond, Ambassador Salamu Amadu looks forward to the Awards ceremony scheduled for April 13, 2024, at the British Council in Accra, Ghana.
Hailing from the deprived Zongo community of Maamobi in Ghana’s Capital, Ambassador Salamu Amadu serves as a beacon of inspiration for countless youth in Zongo communities across the nation.
Under his astute leadership, the Afro-Arab Group has witnessed remarkable growth. A recent milestone includes the launch of an affordable housing project by Afro-Arab Properties, a subsidiary of the Group, offering a flexible payment plan without interest. This initiative aligns with the vision to make homeownership more attainable for a broader segment of the population.
