FBNBank Ghana Limited has held a relay walk to commemorate the 125th anniversary of its parent, FirstBank of Nigeria Limited.
Staff of the bank and stakeholders joined in the walk that was staged simultaneously in Aburi and Kumasi as well as in Nigeria and other countries in which the FBN brand operates to achieve a symbolic 125km.
Speaking at the end of the walk in Aburi, Managing Director of FBNBank Ghana Limited, Gbenga Odeyemi said that ‘as a brand that puts its stakeholders at the heart of its business, the 125km relay walk was to celebrate the brand’s unbroken business operations for 125 years and the bank’s commitment to service excellence.’
He added that the walk was meant to evoke teamwork, partnership and the collective spirit which has shown that together, staff of the bank and the bank’s stakeholders can walk symbolically for 125km together, just as the brand had operated for 125years.
While congratulating participants for walking, Mr. Odeyemi remarked that the walk afforded the bank’s staff and its stakeholders with an opportunity to embrace and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
The 125km relay walk in Kumasi was organised with brass band music starting from the Adum branch and ending at the Suame branch.
In all, about 300 people participated in the FBNBank Ghana 125km relay walk.
