The firm informed the Nigerian Exchange Limited and the investing public about the issuance in a disclosure titled, ‘Series 4, 5 And 6 Of The Commercial Paper Programme’ signed by the Company’s Secretary, Uaboi Agbebaku, on Tuesday.
The breweries said the series of commercial papers opened on Friday, April 28, 2023, and closed on Wednesday, May 3, 2023.
