lifestyle activation, incorporating the key pillars of fitness, fun and healthy food, taking place on

Ahead of the Grand Finale in Lagos however, fitness enthusiasts across five major cities in
Nigeria including Asaba, Port Harcourt, Lagos, Ibadan and Abuja will be treated to high impact
and invigorating activities lined up ahead of the grand finale Verve Life 4.0 fitness event.
To kick off this year’s edition of the Verve Life event, there will be a series of satellite events at
designated facilities across selected cities in Nigeria including; Asaba, Port Harcourt, Lagos,
Ibadan and Abuja in activations themed ‘The Verve Life Is Coming to Your City!’.
These satellite events will generally run through the months of September and October 2021 to

Away from the previous editions which were only held in Lagos, this year’s edition begins with
satellite events across the country, to create space for more Verve cardholders and Nigerians
who are passionate about their fitness and wellness to commune in their shared passion.
Cherry Eromosele, Group Chief Marketing and Communications Officer, Interswitch Group
asserted that Verve, as the leading homegrown payments card and digital token brand in Africa
remains committed to improving the lives of Nigerians, and the Verve Life series of events prove
to be viable avenues through which the brand makes good on that commitment.
She added that “This year’s event is themed ‘Fit to Live’ which encapsulates our reality of the past
year.
To live and thrive in the true sense of things, we all must attain some level of fitness and
that is what the Verve brand presents with the Vervelife 4.0 and its activities. This year’s Vervelife
event like the others, remains true to its goal: to give fun and enlivening experiences to all those
who participate.
She urged participants to attend the event with their Verve cards as the card make them eligible
for exciting activations and incentives such as unique challenges and raffle draws which offer
chances to win exciting prizes and rewards.
She pointed out that though the pandemic disrupted last year’s event, the firm has put all
measures in place to make this year’s edition a success and enjoyable in line with all COVID-19
safety protocols.
“The disruptions to the event last year have given us ample time to be better prepared for this
year’s edition which inevitably will be bigger and more rewarding. This also throws up the
opportunity to bring in more Nigerians from across different regions of the country and give them
the chance to experience the essence of the ‘Good Life’ philosophy, which is what the Verve Life
lifestyle event essentially represents.”, she further stated.
The Verve Life event is an annual fitness and lifestyle event anchored by Verve card, Africa’s
leading payment technology and card business, thus, providing its cardholders and Nigerians
more than payment solutions. The firm through the Verve Life platform avails Nigerians the
opportunity to enrich their lifestyle with information on fitness, health tips, life hacks, beauty,
fashion etc.
The Verve Life event is open to all fitness and wellness enthusiasts. This year, the event is
expanded to include cardholders and Nigerians from across the country into a supportive
community where they are free to commune and share their passion for fitness and wellness.
