Mutual Benefits Assurance Plc

Mutual Benefits Assurance Plc in partnership with Hallmark Health Services Limited (Hallmark HMO), a subsidiary of Consolidated Hallmark Holdings Plc has reaffirmed its commitment to employee wellbeing by hosting the Retail Aerobic Dance & Wellness Day 2026, a vibrant initiative designed to promote healthy living, preventive healthcare and workplace wellness among its Retail Team.

Held under the theme “Sweat It Out!”, the event brought together Retail Managers across Mutual Benefits for an engaging day of fitness, health education and preventive medical screening.

The programme featured an enlightening health talk on Cardiovascular Health delivered by medical professionals from Hallmark HMO, alongside complimentary health screenings, including blood pressure and other vital health checks. Participants also took part in an energetic aerobic dance session aimed at encouraging active lifestyles while fostering teamwork, camaraderie, and employee engagement.

Speaking at the event, Alexander Lawal, Chief Retail Officer, Mutual Benefits Assurance Plc emphasised that employee wellbeing remains fundamental to the company’s long-term success.

“Our people are our greatest asset. As an organisation that exists to provide security and peace of mind to millions of Nigerians, we recognise that this responsibility begins with caring for our own employees. The Retail Aerobic Dance & Wellness Day reflects our commitment to creating a workplace where our people are healthy, motivated, resilient and equipped to deliver exceptional service to our customers.”

Lawal added that promoting healthy lifestyles among employees contributes to higher productivity, stronger collaboration and a culture of excellence across the organisation.

Also speaking on the significance of the event, Dr. (Mrs.) Dotun Adeogun, Chief Executive Officer of Hallmark HMO, highlighted the importance of preventive healthcare in today’s workplace.

“Wellness should never be viewed as an occasional activity but as an essential part of everyday life. Many lifestyle-related illnesses, particularly cardiovascular conditions, can be prevented through regular health checks, physical activity and healthier daily habits. We commend Mutual Benefits for prioritising the wellbeing of its workforce and demonstrating leadership in creating a healthier workplace culture.”

The event concluded with an exciting aerobic fitness session, interactive wellness activities and prize presentations, reinforcing the message that healthy employees are happier, more engaged and better positioned to drive organisational success.

Why Women are Driving Rethinking of the Sales Model (2)

When you recognise that women are not just the majority but actually the vast majority of consumers, and that their power is only going to increase, it completely changes the commercial urgency of getting to grips with women buyers.’ In a day and age when everyone can buy almost anything from anywhere, the “feelgood” factor at every customer touchpoint has never been more important. Youth is Not What it Appears to Be While many marketers still seem obsessed with talking to Gen X and Y consumers, and still think of them as the longest term market worth tapping, the most powerful women financially are often past their youth.

3 Congratulations to 3 Men of History

It’s a season of divine victories for Nigeria! A victorious season that began with peaceful conduct of presidential election on Saturday, March 28, 2015 and equally peaceful handover of political power to another political party at the centre. It was also a political milestone when the defeated incumbent president freely conceded defeat and congratulated his opponent-an exemplary conduct in our clime.
