United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc, a leading global financial institution, is celebrating its 75th anniversary with a renewed commitment to impacting lives across Nigeria and beyond. The bank, which has grown from its modest beginnings in Lagos in 1949 to a global presence in 20 African countries and four major financial hubs worldwide, is marking this milestone with a special edition of its UBA Legacy Promo, aimed at rewarding its loyal customers.
A Legacy of Vision and Innovation
Over the past 75 years, UBA has consistently distinguished itself through visionary leadership and a deep commitment to innovation. The bank has introduced groundbreaking financial products and services, such as LEO, UBA’s AI-powered chatbot, and the first Automated Teller Machine (ATM) in Nigeria. These innovations have not only met the evolving needs of customers but have also left a lasting impact on the financial landscape.
Rewarding Loyalty: The UBA Legacy Promo
In line with its tradition of giving back to the community, UBA has launched a special edition of the UBA Legacy Promo to commemorate its 75th anniversary. The bank has set aside over N200 million to reward loyal customers across Nigeria. This promo, which runs from July to December 2024, covers all 36 states of the federation and offers a range of exciting prizes.
The promo is open to various categories of customers, including bumper account holders, savings account holders, Kiddies and Teens account holders, and NextGen account holders. A total of 75 customers will each win the star prize of N1 million, while another 75 customers will win N250,000 each, and yet another 75 will take home N100,000 each.

Driving a Culture of Savings Amid Economic Challenges
