Independent Director Service

Legal Acumen. Market Insight. Governance Leadership.

Dr. Nnaemeka O. Ewelukwa offers a rare combination of legal depth, commercial understanding, and public-sector governance experience—uniquely positioning him as a highly qualified candidate for Independent Non-Executive Director (INED) roles across sectors.

With over two decades of leadership at the intersection of law, policy, energy, and infrastructure, Dr. Ewelukwa has consistently provided strategic oversight, stewarded high-value transactions, and upheld the principles of corporate accountability and institutional integrity. He has advised at the highest levels of government, led regulatory and policy reform efforts, and built legal frameworks that balance private capital needs with public interest.
