A delegation from Equity Bank Uganda led by Managing Director Gift Shoko today paid a courtesy visit to the Nation Media Group head office in Namwongo, a Kampala suburb. The courtesy visit is part of a series of meetings that the bank is holding to help strengthen media collaborations.
The team was received by Nation Media Group Uganda MD Susan Nsibirwa, flanked by Hajara Batuka, NMG Head of Marketing; Allan Chekwech, the Managing Editor, Daily Monitor; George Kihuria, General Manager, Finance; and Sam Barata, NMG General Manager, Commercial.
Susan Nsibirwa highlighted NMG’s East African footprint, including Daily Monitor, NTV, KFM, and The East African, indicating areas of collaboration and channels of partnership in spreading the Equity Bank story not only in Uganda but also in East Africa.
She also expressed gratitude for, among others, Equity Bank’s three-year strong Top 100 sponsorship and banking support for socio-economic initiatives around the country.
Other areas that the bank is currently focusing on are the provision of social protection for refugees and affordable credit for youth, women, and farmers.
Both parties agreed to explore content collaborations, advocating for impactful storytelling on youth and women’s initiatives and a commitment to mutual growth, with plans for future dialogues.
