However, the Group Managing Director, UBA Plc., Oliver Alawuba, who also spoke at the UBA Africa Conversation on the theme “Innovation on the Continent for Growth,” said:

“It is very apt for our conversation because of the challenges and 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 and engineer prosperity.”

Furthermore, the Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer, UBA Africa, Abiola Bawuah, affirming the bank’s commitment to promoting gender equality, 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.”
