“It’s such an honour to be recognized alongside other celebrated women leaders on our continent, for the third time in a row. It’s an honour because Uganda has hundreds of brilliant, hardworking women who are breaking the proverbial glass ceiling, every day, in their respective fields of practice. Many of them, I know personally, as they are my colleagues at work and in the financial services sector where I have been active for the last two decades. So, allow me to say that this recognition is not mine alone but one that I wish to accept, on behalf of my fellow women at Stanbic Uganda with whom we give our very best, daily, to make a difference in our country and to also give the African girl child the confidence and reason to believe that whatever they seek to become—it can be."

"It is indeed a privilege to be on the definitive list for the third time in a row, and to be leading this amazing team and bank."

“I am honoured to have been selected as one of the top women leading big business in Africa again. As a business we have taken bold proactive steps in our strategy which is rooted in a commitment to #EmbraceEquity and focus on #1ActionAtATime to drive sustained transformation, inclusive economic participation and ultimately making an impact. Leadership has the responsibility to drive positive outcomes and celebrating the achievements of women is important with the hope that it will further encourage increased representation of women across different sectors. My heartfelt congratulations to all who made the list.”

"I am honoured to have been recognized amongst other phenomenal leaders in Africa. bpSA prides itself in advancing diversity, equity and inclusion and this award is testament of the importance of this agenda within our broader business. I work with an incredible team of talented individuals who I am privileged to lead as we take the bpSA journey forward."

“It is a privilege and an honour to be named amongst so many other women who I look to with great admiration. I am honoured to have been selected as one of the top women leading big business in Africa. I congratulate the other women on the list; we need to continue to empower women and girls, for it is essential to the health and social development of families, communities and countries. And so we all have a role to play as women of power and influence. It is key to sustaining economic growth, political stability and social transformation.”
