In a statement signed by the Special Adviser to the President
(Information & Strategy), Bayo Onanuga, the presidency said Mrs Aletor, who sits on the board of several notable companies, played a pivotal role in grooming thousands of legal practitioners at the Nigerian Law School. Her career climaxed as Head of Students Affairs, a position she held until her voluntary retirement in 2020.
President Tinubu notes her contributions to national development through her Capital Express Holding Company Limited, where she is the vice-chairman. The company has interests in insurance, investment banking, energy, and mining, creating employment opportunities for many Nigerians.
