President Bola Tinubu has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to supporting the expansion of banks and

other financial institutions to drive economic growth. Tinubu, who was represented by Vice President Kashim

Shettima, made this statement at the groundbreaking ceremony for First Bank’s 43-story headquarters at Eko Atlantic

City in Lagos.

The President emphasized the importance of banks in driving economic growth, stating that they are the engines of

economic growth. He noted that the current administration is working diligently to establish a sustainable and

globally competitive system for Nigerian banks and other financial institutions to thrive.

Tinubu acknowledged that banks can only prosper in a thriving economy, and therefore, the administration is

committed to creating an enabling environment for businesses to flourish. He assured the banking sector that the

government is a partner in their progress.

The President commended First Bank for its legacy of innovation and adaptability, which has enabled it to stand the

test of time. He noted that the bank’s ability to reinvent itself has been the secret to its success.

First Bank’s 130-year history is a testament to its resilience and ability to evolve with the times. From its humble

beginnings as the Bank of British West Africa to its current status as a leading financial institution, First Bank has

consistently demonstrated its commitment to innovation and excellence.
