Anchor Insurance Company Limited, one of the fastest growing insurance companies in Nigeria, and the Daily Independent’s Insurance Company of the Year Award winner 2020, has announced its sponsorship consideration for “Babakekere” and “Ogiame Erejuwa II” live stage plays happening 15th/16th and 19th April, 2022 in Lagos and Warri respectively.
The company said it was throwing its sponsorship weight behind the two plays because of its love for culture.
Managing Director of the Company, Mr Ebose Augustine made this disclosure while chatting with media correspondents in Lagos on Wednesday.
According to him, “whereas
Babakekere is a play which reminisces the sterling leadership qualities and selfless personality traits of the former Governor of Lagos State, late Alh. Lateef Jakande, popularly then called “Babakekere,” Ogiame Erejuwa II is meant to showcase the culture, royalty, power, influence and pride of Iwere (Warri) Kingdom as represented by the late Ogiame Erejuwa II of Warri in his time.”
He explained that the company became interested in sponsoring both live plays being produced by The Duke of Shomolu Productions especially because of the personalities being honoured and the good lesson from their exemplary lifestyles to the society.
It would be recalled that Anchor Insurance had, among others, sponsored similar plays namely
“Emotan” in Benin City (2019), “Aremu” in Abeokuta (2020) as well as “Ibiom: When Doves Fly” in Uyo (2021).
