CIBN partners Skye Bank on economic development

The President/Chairman of the Chartered Institute of Barkers of Nigeria (CIBN) Prof. Segun Ajibola, has said that the Institute was exploring new ways to forge a partnership with Skye Bank Plc and enhance economic growth.

Ajibola, who dropped this hint when he led the council on a courtesy visit to the management of Skye Bank in Lagos said the delegation was on a mission to seek areas of mutually beneficial cooperation between the bank and the institute.

While soliciting the support of players in the banking industry for the institute, Ajibola urged members to continue to contribute to the enhancement of the banking profession.

He lauded the Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of the bank, Mr. Tokunbo Abiru, for the leadership qualities he had demonstrated in strengthening the operations of the bank since he assumed office.

In a statement by the lender, Ajibola was quoted as inviting the management of the bank to the forthcoming annual bankers’ dinner.

The CIBN president had earlier enumerated the vision of the institute under his leadership as being guided by seven Cs, which he gave as capacity building, certification, codification, communication, creativity, consolidation and constructive engagement.

He further stated, “The seven Cs are intended to transform and enthrone a contemporary institute that is responsive, reliable and resourceful in all areas of its mandate, scholarship, professionalism, relevance, ethical and result-oriented.
