The President of Anadolu Women Farmers Association and CEO Turquaz Health, Süreyya Ümran Alınak, has been recognised with the Corporate Leadership Award for her remarkable contributions to entrepreneurship and cultural exchange between Türkiye and Nigeria.
Alınak, better addressed as Süreyya, bagged the award at the just concluded Global Leadership & Entrepreneurship Summit held in Port Harcourt, the capital city of Rivers State, on April 30, 2024.
Her recognition followed eight years of Local Initiatives in Nigeria which include free educational, leadership, agricultural, and entrepreneurship training for Youth empowerment.
In her speech, Süreyya highlighted the importance of building bridges and shaping a brighter future for
Türkiye and Nigeria. “Over the past decade, Turquaz Group has been actively engaged in various
initiatives aimed at strengthening bilateral relations between the two nations,” a statement made available to newsmen noted.
According to the statement, “Turquaz Group’s focus on medical assistance, Christian pilgrimage to Türkiye, capacity-building programs, medical supplies, and agricultural training programs has been instrumental in fostering collaboration and mutual understanding.”
Through these initiatives, Turquaz Group aims to develop and disseminate medical, agricultural, and aquaculture training programs and capacity-building studies all over Nigeria.
Also, Turkish Healthcare, under the leadership of Ms. Sureyya Omran, will organize an “incentive medicine care training course” in Abuja between 5-7 June 2024, an initiative which underscores Turquaz Group’s commitment to promoting healthcare excellence and capacity building in Nigeria.
Süreyya expressed her vision for the future, stating, “We foresee that the bridge between Turkey and
Nigeria, which we have always worked to build, will rise more solidly.”
She reiterated that Turquaz Group remains dedicated to collaboration, empowerment, and economic growth, inviting stakeholders to join in shaping a brighter future for Türkiye and Nigeria.
