The Management and staff of the defunct Lion Bank, recently paid a courtesy visit to their former colleague and current Managing Director/Chief Executive of the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN), Shehu Usman Osidi, describing him as a dedicated and proactive go-getter.

The Lion Bank delegation, led by Alhaji Dauda Kigbu, was on a felicitation visit to Osidi on his appointment as Chief Executive of the FMBN.

Welcoming the delegation, Osidi affirmed that the visit was a profound reminder of the enduring bonds forged in the spirit of friendship, comradeship and commitment to excellence. “Our time at Lion Bank was marked not just by professional achievements, but by the relationships we built, the support we extended to one another, and the unwavering professionalism that guided our actions,” Osidi stated.

He touched on his progress since assumption of office, noting that it had been a tasking but eventful period, during which the executive management team of the Bank under his leadership has adopted methodical approaches to tackling the Bank’s challenges, many of which are already yielding the expected results.

While acknowledging the enormity of the job entrusted to him and the high expectations from all stakeholders for a speedy resolution to the myriad of challenges preventing the Bank from maximally delivering on its mandate, Osidi assured the Lion Bank delegation of his commitment to making them proud by propelling the Bank to great heights. “I want to assure you that I will not let you down.”

Responding, Alhaji Kigbu lauded Osidi’s elevation as MD/CE of FMBN, describing it as a fulfillment of one of Lion Bank’s cardinal objectives. Extolling Osidi’s fine qualities that have contributed to his elevation, Alhaji Kigbu said, “We are not surprised by the elevation of Shehu; he is a very passionate, brilliant, dedicated, humble, committed, loyal individual with absolute faith and trust in God, and we didn’t have any doubt that the sky would be his limit. We are not surprised that even the sky is beginning to open its doors to let him in.”

In his comment, the FMBN Executive Director of Loans and Mortgage Services, Dr. Muhammad Sani Abdu, said he was not surprised about Osidi’s display of excellence, given that he learnt from the best, in the person of Alhaji Dauda Kigbu. He pledged his support to Osidi, stating that they would work together to “make a lion out of FMBN.”

Other members of the delegation, made up of Mrs. Miriam Truman, Dr. David Angbazo, Mr. Sabo Ogar, Cecilia Dada and others, hailed Osidi as a go-getter who is proactive, dedicated, focused and a master of his work.
