He gave the advice during the Health Walk that took place in Ibadan, Oyo State capital, in commemoration of the ‘Financial Inclusion Week 2024’.

He said: “This health walk we embarked on today is to create more awareness to the people to let them know that excercise is on of the major factors to a healthy life style.qhen you excercise a lot a a routine it puts your body in shape and make you more feet… taking a walk is one of the best ways to be in smart form..the health walk took off at the organisation’s head office at Challenge to Iyana Ade-Oyo junction.”

In a pep talk that took place at Eleyele Grammar School, he also enjoined children and students to imbibe the act of saving so as to have a stabilised financial future for self-dependence.

When asked about the reason for the financial stability advocacy to the children, Nwokolo said: “We all know that money is part of what we use in running our daily activities, that has to do with building a home.

“I want to make them understand that as children when they understand the act of saving, and ask questions on finance from their parents. It will help them know how money is made and prioritise their spending on their wants and desires.

“This will help them with a sense of discipline and self-dependency in future. And I also encourage them to learn the act of keeping themselves in a clean state. Practising body hygiene will keep sickness far away from them and by that, there will be less spending for drugs.”

One of the teachers at the school, Mrs Oyin Balogun, on behalf of the School Principal and students thanked the FCMBMFB management for choosing their school for the gesture by educating the children on money saving culture and hygiene as future leaders, adding that it was a great honour for them.

The event was an avenue for the bank to show love and give back to the society by visiting a remote community called Ekerin Ologuneru in Ibadan where food items were distributed to members of the community.

The bank management used the event to visit and appreciate customers who have been with them over the years.

An elated customer, Mrs Blessing David, who is a wine and liquor distributor, commended the bank for its financial support through loans, which have helped her bussines to grow. In her words, “I have been with the bank for over six years now, they have really supported me with loans and the comfortable payback plans which have helped my bussiness grow steadily. If they can increase the loans for us so we can have more money to buy more goods, it will be an added advantage for them and a win for us too”

Other activities lined up to celebrate the event included market storm, where the bank management visited notable markets in Agbeni and Ogunpa to create more awareness about FCMB Micro Finance Bank.

Staff and management also engaged in games with the climax of the event being the presentation of awards to an outstanding staff, who has been outstanding in performance and has been with the bank for years.

Mr Nwokolo, who was an awardee and also a top management staff, on behalf of the awardees and staff, thanked the management for recognising ther efforts and loyalty to the organisation and promised to put more efforts to make FCMB Micro Finance Bank one of the most sought-after lending institutions in the country. He also thanked the customers for identifying with them to thrive.
