United Bank for Africa Plc has unveiled 30 students as UBA brand ambassadors for 2019 in the third edition of its campus ambassador programme.

In a statement, it said the 30 students made up of 17 males and 13 females, chosen from various tertiary institutions across Nigeria, were selected based on a number of carefully-defined criteria including clear leadership and creative skills, as well as the keen ability to promote the UBA brand as campus ambassadors.

Part of  the statement read, “UBA’s campus ambassador programme is  UBA’s initiative to identify young emerging leaders from tertiary institutions across the country and give them a unique and highly rewarding learning experience while also grooming them to be effectual leaders in their societies and country at large. 

The programme is also an opportunity for the bank to give back to students who remain a core component of the bank’s legacy.”

The Group Head, Digital and Consumer Banking, UBA Plc, Anant Rao, who spoke at the unveiling ceremony at the bank’s head office in Lagos, explained that the UBA campus ambassador programme offered a unique opportunity to students of tertiary institutions in Nigeria to be part of a dynamic and forward-thinking Pan-African bank by representing the brand both within and outside the campus.

He noted that the programme was designed to be a win-win for both the students and the bank as it presented a learning experience and a highly rewarding pursuit for selected students, while providing them with a platform to display their leadership capabilities and showcase their diverse talents which will in turn drive further growth to the bank.
