First Bank, in a note of appreciation sent to customers and endorsed by Dr. Adeduntan and made available by ITREALMS entitled "Woven into the Fabric of Society, 1894-2019" thanked customers for unwavering support as "your bank clocks 125 - a historical milestone in the annals of our history."
He also appreciated customers for "125 years of supporting and enabling dreams, 125 years of resilience and relevance, 125 years of trust, safety and security, 125 years of long term value to all stakeholders, 125 years woven into the fabric of our society and therefore we dare say, 125 years beyond comparison."
ITREALMS reports that they mean it when "we say FirstBank is You" stressing that as Nigerians, Adeduntan maintained they have made history together and should be proud of this monumental feat because globally, very few institution can boast of such a rich heritage.
From a very modest beginning in 1894 as the Bank of British West Africa, Adeduntan said, the bank has traversed an incredible journey, delivering impeccable financial services to customers and supporting the building of the modern-day Nigeria and indeed, West Africa which included the early pivotal role as the monetary and fiscal policy regulator for the entire West African region.
Equally, he pointed out that at the amalgamation, independence and through the seasons ever since, FirstBank has been here marching hand-in-hand with its customers.
"We have enabled technological, industrial and societal advancements, achieving very many first; been resilient and supportive through periods of rapids and radical changes; pioneered and charted the course in our industry, nay, in the nation at large," he said.
Adeduntan, on behalf of board and management of FirstBank, said its honour and privilege to thank customers at this time and assure them that they look forward boldly and with great confidence and optimism to the next 125 years.
"We are here with you and for you, and promise to remain truly the first by keeping you first," he declared.
