“I’ve found the School of Eloquence as the go-to institution for the learning and mastery of the art of public speaking, especially for highly placed Nigerians in business or politics. I am also the more impressed that its dean, Ubong Essien, brings global best practices to bear having recently become Nigeria’s first Certified Speaking Professional. I highly recommend it.”
