Nigerian multimillionaire banker Tony Elumelu has commissioned the UBA Experience Center in Nigeria’s capital city of Abuja.

The ultra-modern banking center, which was launched by United Bank for Africa (UBA), the Lagos-based pan-African banking group led by Elumelu, is located in the Transcorp Hilton Hotel Abuja. It offers a first-class banking experience to customers, while improving the overall consumer service.

The experience center features a holographic receptionist, a self-service kiosk, a visitors lounge, a coffee station, interactive displays featuring the bank’s products and services, and other amenities such as free Wi-Fi. It also provides instant card dispensing, cash withdrawal, and cash deposit services for customers.

One of Africa’s most influential businessmen, Elumelu owns a sizable 6.96-percent stake in the banking group. He explained that the opening of the center is consistent with UBA’s commitment to introduce innovative products and services while keeping customer satisfaction at the fore.

“UBA has invested significantly in cutting edge technology in a bid to boost its overall services to customers and meet their needs at every touchpoint,” Elumelu said. “The UBA Experience Center is a further demonstration of the bank’s unalloyed commitment to ensuring premium services as well as reaffirming its customer focused culture globally.”

The launch of the center comes nearly one month after UBA opened a new branch at the Dubai International Financial Center in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

The Dubai branch brings UBA’s global presence to 24 countries and four continents and is part of the bank’s long-term strategy to become a leading international bank.

Following a gain of more than $4.5 million in the first six weeks of 2022, Elumelu’s 6.96-percent stake in UBA has declined by more than $10.4 million in the past 27 weeks, according to a report published less than 24 hours ago by Billionaires.Africa.
