Few weeks to the Christmas celebration, Zenith bank PLC, in continuing with its tradition of Corporate Social Responsibility has light up the entire length of Ajose Adeogun street in Victoria Island (VI), Lagos state with an unbeatable array of brilliant, dazzling lights, and festive decor.
Ajose Adeogun street, the bank headquarters, is annually decorated with different shades of lighting, such as winged angels blowing trumpets, reindeers drawing a sledge set on rails, petal-shaped tall flowers, tall bells, and grand decorative spherical ornaments, among other pizzaz.
Speaking at the event, Managing Director, Peter Amangbo, on Saturday, November 16, described it as the best in the world, saying that the Zenith bank has done that consistently for the past Fourteen years.
Amangbo said: “It feels that it was just yesterday that we turned on the light for 2018 Christmas, here we are again to turn on the light in line with our usual convention of ushering in the events and activities that would mark the end of the year
