5. Appointment of members of the Audit Committee.
6. Disclosure of remuneration of managers of the company.

Company Secretary
At the 1st Annual General Meeting of Prime Nigeria PLC held on the 22nd day of April, 2022 at
the registered office of the company, the following ordinary resolution was proposed and duly
passed:
“That Betta Edu be and is hereby appointed as a director of Prime Nigeria PLC.”

Director Secretary
** (She mentioned that this signatory can also be two directors, instead of one director and the secretary. This is
because in the event of a director doubling as the Secretary, he cannot sign for both portfolios. As such, it would
result in the resolution being signed by 2 directors only)
Side note: It turns out a little humour cannot affect your scores in a Draft. For instance, our company secretary is
‘Portable Skepta’ and our additional director is ‘Betta Edu’, the humanitarian minister accused of corruption. The
lecturers had no correction to this (because it violates no assessment rules). So, have fun while you can – it’s all for
the Purpose of Bar Finals!
