ARM Urges Pensioners, Contributors to Embrace Healthy Living

Pension contributors and pensioners in the country have been encouraged to embrace healthy living so as to enjoy what they have worked for.

Managing Director, ARM Pension, Wale Odutola made this known while speaking to  journalists at the annual 5km run/walk tagged, ‘Run for the Future ’  organised by the company.

He said the event, which is part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) seeks to promote health leaving among its clients and the Nigerian public.

He said beginning from this year the event will be holding in three major cities, Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt.

This year’s event in Lagos saw participants who were adorned in the PFA’s T-shirts ‘Run for the Future’ slogan walking/running from Ikoyi office of the firm to Lekki.

Odutola explained that the 5km run/walk aimed at creating awareness amongst the general public on the importance of exercise and healthy living.

“When we started the ‘Run for the Future’ three years, the objective was very simple: we wanted to create an avenue to engage with our clients but most importantly to promote healthy living. The run allows us to do both simultaneously.  It also provides a fun way for our clients to engage with us and each other and interact.

“The feedback has been good, and that encouraged us to include it in our calendar of events and expand it now to other cities including Abuja and Port Harcourt. The run in Lagos starts from our head office in Ikoyi as it has always been and go all the way to Lekki and ends here in our office. For us, our joy is that we are able to promote healthy living,” he said.
