New Zenith Bank GMD… Modeling Without Runway

That Dr. Adaora Umeoji is brainy and beautiful are reflected in the several information and messages that have been passed around since her announcement as the new Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Zenith Bank.

Someone even described her as the most certified banker in Nigeria based on the fact that she has three levels of degrees. But aside her certifications, she comes like many of the models that walk through the runways if her dress sense, body shape and look are spotlighted. However, Adora seems unique, as she is an outstanding model that does not walk the runway cat walking.

Unlike other models who needed physical outward attributes to catwalk the runways, Adora does not catwalk the runways but through the banking hall. And she does this simply because of her capacity to deliver on task given and exceptional banking and finance skills that are product of 30 years and counting, as well as rising through the ladder on the job.

Beyond that, she is also a role model and inspiration for many young Nigerians, especially females who are looking at breaking the ceiling in their sector or profession as she is the first female to become the GMD of Zenith Bank. This is more so that some of them testify that she is a ‘she for she champion’.

That she is good at what she does and does it compassionately is reflected in the many testimonies by those that have come in contact with her professionally.
