NATIONALITY: Cameroonian

AGE: 38

CURRENT POSITION: Director, McKinsey & Co; Head, McKinsey Nigeria

EXPERTISE: Consulting ( Oil & Gas, Telecommunication, Financial Services)

EDUCATION: PhD Electrical Engineering (Stanford); Msc Electrical Engineering (Stanford); Msc Industrial Engineering/Engineering Management (Stanford); Bsc Electrical Engineering (Georgia State University, US).

JARUSHUB ONE-LINE SUMMARY: One of the finest young brains Africa has ever produced.

JARUSHUB REMARKS

He joined McKinsey as an Associate in 1998.

McKinsey is one of the Top 5 consulting firms in the world and they have one of the most rigorous recruitment process. It is no surprise that they attract the best brains. Read the account of one of our columnists who underwent their recruitment 2 years ago.

He is another proof of the place of Stanford as one of the top universities in the world. You can’t go to Stanford and be average.

He had summa cum laude (First Class) in his first degree in GIT and finished as the first black valedictorian (what we call Best Graduating Student here) in the history of the school.

An Electrical Engineer (up to PhD level) breaking barriers as a world class consultant.
