On his appointment, Sir Henry Bellingham commented: “It is an exciting time to join ADM and work alongside an ambitious team determined to drive forward its expansion plans in West Africa. I have gained a great understanding of the region throughout my various roles in Parliament, including as a former Minister for Africa, and I look forward to supporting ADM as it enters the next stage of its development.”
