The Amazing Lifestyles of Nigerian Bank MDs

-

Some bank bosses try so hard to develop a lifestyle that would never request their presence. Some would attend every party as a measure of courtesy but having gotten there; fade indistinct­ly into the background like some yellow butterfly on a sallow wall. But some become the life of the party and that is what separates them from all. Gaiety is the most outstandin­g feature of this latter lot. Unlike many other bank MDs and CEOs of financial institutio­ns, they endeavour to lose themselves and have undiluted fun thus dismissing the notion top bankers and bank bosses can never take time away from their hectic schedules to unwind. A visit to town will amuse you. Stroll into any high octane show or high society shindig and you would be astounded to see many bank MDs supposedly prim and proper rocking the party and having the time of their lives. Even though they are unarguably the pillars responsibl­e for the survival of the financial sector, these bank CEOs have learnt to work hard and party hard. By the same gusto and doggedness of spirit by which they cultivate the nation’s financial sector, the play hard and groove hard in often wild and scrupulous abandon. They live on the edge and dare exploit tropes even certified daredevils wouldn’t dare. And what’s their modus operandi? They frequent high profile night clubs, land and sea race tracks, polo turfs, golf clubs, celebrity hang outs and exclusive gentlemen and leisure clubs. There, in the company of like minds, they deploy their stupendous wealth wildly and adventurou­sly in pursuit of unparallel­ed highs and fun.
