Encomium
On Friday, May 23, 2014, Access Bank Plc held its third annual Chief Executive Officers (CEO) Award night to a glorious crescendo.
The event, at the prestigious Eko Hotel & Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos, was the best of its kind as it paraded dignitaries from far and near. It was also an atmosphere loaded with fun that was enough to go round the attendees. The strictly formal shindig featured exciting performances by three of the top Nigerian music acts, Tiwa Savage, Darey Art Alade and Ada Ada crooner, Flavour N’abania. They indeed electrified the venue. The compere and master of ceremonies, Basket Mouth also thrilled with his rib-cracking jokes while a motivational speech was delivered by the award winning novelist, Chimamanda Ngozi Adiche.
Here are the faces at the colourful ceremony as captured by Dapo Adeseko.
