The MD of Leadway Holdings praised employees for their role in the company's success in relation to the acquisition. A staff member confirmed the acquisition through a conversation with a news outlet.

The integration process for the acquisition will be rolled out in the coming weeks. Further details about the acquisition will be communicated to stakeholders and customers in the same timeframe. The acquisition is expected to strengthen Leadway Holdings' position in the Nigerian financial services sector, particularly in the pensions market.

While no specific banks have been mentioned as involved in the recent acquisition of PAL Pensions, the acquisition is poised to consolidate Leadway Holdings' presence in the sector and position the company as a major player in the pensions market.

In the coming weeks, more information about the acquisition is expected to be shared with stakeholders and customers. As the details unfold, it is clear that this acquisition marks a significant step forward for Leadway Holdings in its quest to consolidate its position in Nigeria's financial services sector.
