“Last night, I had the honour of attending Wema Bank’s 80th anniversary to support someone I admire greatly — Dr. Oluwayemisi Olorunshola, the bank’s first-ever female Chairman. Being in a room full of visionary leaders was so inspiring!” she wrote.
She added, “Congratulations to the entire Wema Bank team on celebrating 80 years of resilience and innovation! Here’s to breaking barriers and shaping the future!”
