Nigeria’s foremost engineering construction company, Julius Berger Nigeria Plc, has won the award as the company with the ‘Highest Dividend Growth’ in the country’s stock market for the business year 2022.

The meritorious award which is strictly based on objective facts and figures already in the public domain through the Securities and Exchange Commission, was given to Julius Berger at the 2022 Pearl Awards ceremony which held at the iconic Eko Hotels  in Nigeria’s business and financial hub, Victoria Island, Lagos.

Julius Berger Nigeria Plc won in the Market Excellence Awards category, where each award is made in recognition of entire market leadership in respect of the indices listed above.

According to the former Chairman, Nigeria Economic Summit Group, Mazi Sam Ohuanbunwa, its almost three decades of consistency, transparency and objectivity as facts-based, the Pearl Awards have encouraged companies to promote good corporate governance and ascending performance. This, he said, meaningfully underscores the theme for the 2022 Pearl Awards: ‘Sustaining Excellence through Tenacity.’
