Sanlam Nigeria Fosters Team Spirit with Inter-House Sports Event

Sanlam Nigeria, a leading insurance company, comprising Sanlam Life Insurance Nigeria Limited and its subsidiary, Sanlam General Insurance Nigeria Limited, recently held an exciting Inter-House Sports team bonding event for its staff. The event, which held at the Femi Gbajabiamila Sports Complex, Abalti Barracks, Lagos was aimed at promoting teamwork, camaraderie, and a healthy dose of competition among employees.

The Inter-House Sports theme saw staff divided into four houses, each representing the different core values of the company: Collaboration (Green House), Integrity (Yellow House), Innovation (Red House) and Care (Blue House). The event featured a range of fun and engaging activities, including march past, tug of war, sack race, egg race, catching the train, relay races and sprint, as well as football among others.

“We believe that a strong team is the backbone of any successful organisation,” said Tunde Mimiko, MD/CEO of Sanlam Life Insurance Nigeria Limited. “The Inter-House Sports event was a fantastic opportunity for our staff to bond, build relationships, and showcase their skills in a relaxed and enjoyable environment,” he concluded.

The MD/CEO, Sanlam General Insurance, Bode Opadokun, reiterated the conviviality and sportsmanship displayed; “It is good to see colleagues enjoy a good day out, with strong competitive spirit and above all, meet colleagues across both businesses whom they may ordinarily not know beyond names in email correspondences.”

The event was marked by enthusiasm, energy, and a sense of belonging among participants. Team Integrity (Yellow House) emerged as the overall winner, but the real victory was the strengthened bonds and memories created among colleagues.

Sanlam Nigeria is committed to fostering a positive and inclusive work culture, and the Inter-House Sports event was a testament to this commitment. Formerly known as FBNInsurance, Sanlam Nigeria is a member of the Sanlam Group, present across Africa.
