Speaking at the fifth edition of the UBA Africa
Conversations, Elumelu emphasized the bank’s pivotal role in driving positive
change across the continent and its dedication to unlocking Africa’s vast
potential.
The bank also reiterated its commitment to promoting gender
equality.
The Group Managing Director at UBA, Oliver Alawuba,
emphasized the bank’s dedication to helping Africa become the continent of the
future and celebrated Africa’s rich culture, talent, and diversity.
Speaking on the theme, ‘Innovation on the Continent for
Growth’, he said, “It is very apt for our conversation because of the challenges and
the opportunities that Africa as a continent is faced with; but the truth
remains that between these challenges and opportunities is a thin line which we
believe UBA Group can help unlock the
challenges and engineer prosperity.”
On the bank’s commitment to promoting gender equality,
Executive Director and Chief Executive
Officer, UBA Africa, Abiola Bawuah, said, “As it stands, we
have more female board members than any bank, thanks to the Chairman of the
board, Tony Elumelu, who believes that women can occupy top roles in
organisations and excel. This is very remarkable, and I know that other
organisations have started trying to emulate this. So, by this move, we are
leading the positive change in Africa, and this is very laudable”.
