Nwabuaku Obi, ACA
Sunday Francis is a great asset to any team. He is such a great team player, always willing to take on more to propel the team forward. Sunday is highly analytical, as he applies himself to the task at hand and goes the extra mile to meet set goals. It was such a delight working with him and I have no reservation in recommending him, as the value he brings can be very easily seen both in the high quality of work he delivers and in the positive relationship he builds with his team.
