Zenith Bank, a leading financial institution in Ghana, organized a health walk to promote healthy living among its staff and customers as part of its 19th anniversary.

The event, dubbed "19 Years of Innovation and Excellence” brought together board members, management, staff, customers, and friends of the bank.

Participants walked from the bank’s head office through Trade Fair, Circle, and back, completing the route in just over two hours across the streets of Accra.

The Managing Director of Zenith Bank Ghana, Henry Onwuzurigbo said: “Health is wealth, that is a common phrase everywhere and a lot of people do sedentary work.

“We always seat down and rarely exercise ourselves. We had to shut down our elevator for one week to prepare our staffs for this walk. At times we think we are healthy but blood is clotting somewhere without you exercising yourself.”

Henry also thanked customers for their immense support and promised to continue serving their best interests.

Dignitaries who participated in the health walk included the Nigerian High Commissioner to Ghana, Ibok-Ete Ibas, and the bank’s Board Chair, Mrs. Freda Yahan Duplan.

The event is organized annually with bigger expectations for next year which will mark their 20th anniversary.
