Zenith Bank PLC has proposed a total dividend of ₦8.75 per share for the 2025 financial year.

The Math: If you hold 10,000 units, you are looking at a ₦87,500 gross payout. At ₦103.00/share, the yield is sitting in a very attractive territory, especially for those looking to hedge against inflation.
The Institutional Signal: This payout follows their ₦3.4 Trillion gross earnings report. It’s clear that high interest rates are fueling massive interest income for the banks, and Zenith is passing that "Harvest" directly to you.

Questions:
The "Qualification" Sprint: We are waiting for the official Qualification Date and Ex-Dividend Date to be confirmed in the full corporate action filing. If it follows the usual pattern, April is about to get very busy.
Reinvestment vs. Cash: In this high-rate world, will you be taking this ₦8.75 as cash to handle "Current Expenses," or will you be using it to buy more units of Zenith to compound your ownership?

The GTCo Comparison: With GTCo paying ₦11.76, the "Banking War" for shareholder loyalty is at an all-time high.

Which of these Tier-1 giants is sitting heavier in your portfolio right now?
This is the kind of news that turns a "Rally" into a "Revolution"! Are you "Locking in" more Zenith units before the Ex-Dividend date, or is this your signal to diversify into the Mid-Caps we discussed yesterday? Drop your reaction below! ️
⚠️ Note:
Ensure your e-Dividend Mandate with Coronation Registrars is up to date. An ₦8.75 payout is too big to let sit in the "Unclaimed" list!
