CaterandMerger Consult UK is delighted to announce the appointment of its Chief Executive Officer, Mazi Godson Azu, as the Official Coordinator of the Nigeria House within the forthcoming Africa Pavilion Glasgow 2026, one of the flagship platforms dedicated to showcasing Africa’s innovation, enterprise, culture, and global partnerships.
The announcement was formally made by Chief Ambassador Uzo Owunne, Chief Executive Officer of INGO UK, owners and facilitators of the Africa Pavilion Glasgow initiative, during a courtesy and strategic engagement with His Excellency Ambassador Amin Dalhatu, the High Commissioner of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to the Court of St James’s, London.
In introducing Mazi Godson Azu to the High Commissioner and officials of the Nigeria High Commission, Chief Ambassador Owunne affirmed CaterandMerger Consult UK’s role in coordinating the activities and participation of the proposed Nigeria House, which is expected to serve as Nigeria’s dedicated showcase within the Africa Pavilion arena.
Speaking on the appointment, Mazi Godson Azu expressed profound appreciation to INGO UK for the confidence reposed in CaterandMerger Consult UK.
“We are deeply honoured by this responsibility and excited about the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to a project of this magnitude. Nigeria House will provide an inclusive platform to celebrate our nation’s strengths, tell our stories from our own perspective, and showcase the creativity, resilience, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit of Nigerians both at home and across the diaspora.”
The Nigeria House initiative is envisioned as a dynamic hub designed to project a positive and contemporary image of Nigeria to the international community. Through exhibitions, networking engagements, business forums, cultural displays, tourism promotion, music, fashion, entertainment, and investment showcases, the platform aims to foster deeper understanding, collaboration, and economic opportunities between Nigeria and the wider global community.
Africa Pavilion Glasgow 2026 presents a unique opportunity to bring together governments, businesses, investors, creatives, entrepreneurs, community leaders, and members of the African diaspora under one roof to celebrate the richness and diversity of the continent while promoting sustainable partnerships and shared prosperity.
As Coordinator of Nigeria House, CaterandMerger Consult UK will work closely with relevant stakeholders to ensure robust Nigerian participation and a memorable national presence that reflects the country’s vast potential and achievements.
The organisation therefore extends an open invitation to Nigerian businesses, trade and investment facilitators, chambers of commerce, cultural institutions, members of the entertainment industry, tourism operators, entrepreneurs, professional associations, and the wider diaspora community to seize this opportunity to participate as exhibitors, partners, sponsors, speakers, guests, and visitors.
Africa Pavilion Glasgow 2026 will not only serve as a platform for celebration and cultural exchange but also as a catalyst for investment, innovation, trade promotion, and strategic partnerships that advance Nigeria’s global visibility and economic aspirations.
Together, let us showcase the best of Nigeria to the world and tell our story with pride, confidence, and purpose.
For partnership, exhibition, sponsorship, and participation enquiries, interested organisations and individuals are encouraged to contact CaterandMerger Consult UK for further information.
This appointment represents not only a significant recognition of CaterandMerger Consult UK’s growing role in international engagement but also an opportunity for Nigerians at home and abroad to unite in projecting a positive national narrative through enterprise, culture, and collaboration on a global stage.
