“Once again, we have continued our track record of excellence and strong financial performance, which reflects the strength of our diversified business model. Last year, we made history by declaring our first-ever interim dividend, alongside a 2-for-1 bonus issue, which was met with great enthusiasm by our shareholders.

“This year, we continue to honour our commitment by declaring another interim dividend of N5.4 billion, reinforcing our dedication to delivering sustainable returns and enhancing shareholder value.”
