Access Bank MD joins Buhari’s Presidential Advisory Council
  • March 20, 2023
  • Unity Times

The Managing Director of Access Bank Plc, Roosevelt Ogbonna, has been appointed by President Muhammadu Buhari, to the Presidential High-Level Advisory Council on Support to Women and Girls. This came as a result of the bank’s dedication to women’s empowerment through adequate financing and literacy promotion, as well as advocacy and specialised training.

Since Ogbonna took over the helm of affairs of the financial institution, he has focused on equal access to opportunities and social infrastructure for women. Under his leadership, the bank has signed a commitment letter with the Development Finance Corporation (DFC) for the sum of $280 million in financing to help address the financing gap for small and medium-sized enterprises and advance financial inclusion in Nigeria, aiding the Bank’s commitment to supporting women-owned and led businesses.

While accepting the responsibilities, Ogbonna described his appointment as a significant task given to ensure gender equality, equal access to opportunities, and national development through purposeful long-term initiatives targeted at women.

He added that being appointed by the Presidency signifies that he and the financial institution he represents are doing something right and it also points to the impact of the various initiatives and vocational training programmes on the larger society.
