OGUN, the Gateway State has been lucky to have scored first in many areas of human endeavours to the admiration of many and to the chagrin of a few. In fact, it has been called the state of giants by great intellectuals on account of the contributions of its indigenes to sociopolitical and economic development of Nigeria, Africa and the World at large. Ogun has produced giants in law, accounting, sports, science,literary and Arts as well as politics.
It is therefore not surprising, that the state is gifted with another giant who is not only an embodiment of the tradition of excellence that Ogun is known for, but also combines energy, zeal and creativity that are uncommon. Senator Ibikunle Amosun (SIA) is the definition of a home made brand who is proudly “Egba” and truly global in his orientation.

YEAR 2021 started on a good note for the Nigerian women with the emergence of Nneka Onyeali–Ikpe as the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Fidelity Bank, on January 1, and Yemisi Edun as the acting Managing Director of First Monument Bank (FCMB) on January 6, 2021 respectively.
With these latest appointments the number of women currently sitting at the helms of affairs in the banking industry has risen to six.
This is a no mean feat bearing in mind that the banking industry was male-dominated and its leadership, many had thought, was an exclusive preserve of the menfolk.
There is no doubt about the fact that these two recent appointments are a boost to the womenfolk, and it is expected to give the career women an impetus to also break the glass ceilings in their respective organisations. Today WWW presents the six women functioning as the MD/CEO and chairman of the board of directors and of the leading banks in Nigeria.
