The Zenith Bank Ghana Limited has held a health walk to promote physical fitness and healthy lifestyles among its staff, customers and business partners as part of activities marking its 21st anniversary health walk and SME Fair

The walk, which attracted the management, staff, customers and other stakeholders, formed part of the Bank’s twenty-first anniversary celebration on the theme: “21 Years of Excellence, A Future of Possibilities.”

Mr Henry C. Onwuzurigbo, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Zenith Bank Ghana, said the exercise demonstrated the Bank’s commitment to the health and wellbeing of its workforce and customers.

He said the Bank recognised the importance of regular physical activity, particularly for workers whose duties involved prolonged periods of sitting.

Mr Onwuzurigbo said the health walk provided an opportunity for participants to exercise their bodies, improve their fitness and refresh themselves while celebrating the Bank’s anniversary.

He said the Bank organised the annual exercise to encourage staff and customers to adopt healthy lifestyles, adding that similar activities were increasingly being held at its branches.

He said the initiative also promoted teamwork and strengthened relationships among staff, customers and business partners, bringing together people who might not ordinarily interact.

Mr Onwuzurigbo said the Bank had observed growing interest in health walks among its customers, some of whom had adopted the initiative and invited the Bank to participate in their own exercises.

He said the anniversary celebration also featured an exhibition by small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as displays by vehicle manufacturers, providing participants with opportunities to explore products and services.

He urged participants to engage with the exhibitors and take advantage of the opportunities available to them, while continuing to prioritise their health and wellbeing.

Mr Onwuzurigbo said the Bank would continue to promote initiatives that supported healthy living, teamwork and stronger relationships with its stakeholders as it pursued its future growth and service objectives.
