emPLE, one of Nigeria’s leading insurance providers, has officially flagged off Green emPLE, its company-wide sustainability initiative, with a tree-planting exercise held in partnership with the Lagos State Parks and Gardens Agency (LASPARK) at the National Theatre, Iganmu, Lagos.

As part of the launch, emPLE planted 65 trees across strategic locations in Lagos. The carefully selected tree species were chosen for their environmental benefits such as improving air quality, reducing urban heat, and enhancing the city’s ecological balance.

Speaking at the event, Oyinlade Olalekan, Managing Director of emPLE General Insurance Limited, remarked,

“At emPLE, we’re deeply committed to empowering lives—not just through our financial offerings but by actively contributing to a more sustainable world. The launch of Green emPLE and today’s tree-planting activity are key steps in that journey. Sustainability is one of our core values, and we’re proud to be playing our part in building a cleaner, greener Lagos.”

He added,

“We see Green emPLE as a platform for driving real impact, one initiative at a time. This partnership with LASPARK is only the beginning. We look forward to rolling out more activities that reinforce our mission and encourage others to join us in protecting the planet.”

Mrs. Adetoun Popoola, General Manager of LASPARK, also commended the initiative, saying:

“Our mandate at LASPARK is to promote a greener Lagos through tree planting and urban beautification. It’s always encouraging to see private sector organisations like emPLE step forward in support of this mission. Collaborations like this help us get more done and inspire residents and businesses alike to take sustainability seriously. We are excited about what Green emPLE represents and we look forward to more impactful partnerships.”

To acknowledge emPLE’s contribution, LASPARK presented the company with a Tree Planting Certificate, recognising its role in environmental preservation and its ongoing support for climate resilience and green urban development.

Green emPLE is emPLE’s long-term commitment to promoting sustainable practices that support a healthier planet and empower future generations. The initiative reflects the company’s belief that true empowerment goes beyond financial products it includes taking responsibility for the environment and driving long-term positive change.
