Wema Bank has declared its plans to reward customers as it celebrates its 81st anniversary alongside the 9th anniversary of its digital platform, ALAT.
The bank, in a statement, said the celebration, scheduled for May 2, 2026, will feature giveaways on the ALAT app and the launch of Season 5 of its “5 for 5” reward initiative.
It noted that, unlike its 80th anniversary in 2025, this year’s celebration would focus on giving back to customers, in line with its theme, “Your Future of Possibilities, Powered by Wema Bank.”
The bank also disclosed plans to introduce a customer success initiative aimed at supporting various segments, including students, businesses, working-class women and creatives, with tailored opportunities and strategic guidance.
Speaking on the development, the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, Moruf Oseni, said, “The world is rapidly evolving. Digital evolution and emerging technologies continue to present newer opportunities and realities.”
To thrive, one must be prepared to adapt where needed and ready to leverage the possibilities ahead; and this is what we want to help our customers achieve.
“With millions of individuals and businesses in our care, we have a deep sense of responsibility towards helping them make meaningful progress and our 81st anniversary presents the perfect opportunity for us to deepen our efforts towards fulfilling that responsibility. We are building a smarter and more secure financial future for our customers, one where banking is effortlessly aligned with their goals, intelligently anticipating their needs and proactively providing the right solutions.
“Beyond banking solutions, we are curating opportunities, providing platforms, building an entire ecosystem engineered in the best interests of every unique Wema Bank customer. Our goal is for our customers to grow as we grow, to always be one step ahead, and to make accelerated progress towards their future of possibilities as we journey with them.
“To every stakeholder who has been a part of Wema Bank’s 81-year journey: our investors, regulators, partners, esteemed customers and dearest employees; this anniversary is dedicated to you, and this is why we have chosen to celebrate this way. On behalf of the entire board and management of Wema Bank, I say THANK YOU for 81 historic years. We have, we are, and we will be with you, all the way. Happy 81st Anniversary to us all.”
The bank reiterated its commitment to delivering innovative financial solutions and supporting customers to achieve their goals.
