In response to the certification, Wema Bank’s Managing Director/CEO, Moruf Oseni, emphasized the bank’s focus on employee welfare, saying, “Our employees, the Wema Bank Knights, are the backbone of our success. We remain dedicated to providing a supportive, enriching, and fulfilling work environment, and this certification is a testament to that commitment."

This latest recognition further solidifies the bank's position as a leader in promoting workplace innovation and employee development.

Oseni added, “This certification not only affirms our commitment to enhancing employee experiences but also challenges us to go further in our efforts to create an outstanding work culture that will drive the bank's continued growth and success."
