An administrative building at the Community Secondary School, Enugwuabo Ufuma, in Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State has been renovated by Fidelity Bank Plc.

The project underscores the bank’s long-standing commitment to investing in education as a catalyst for sustainable development, according to the Regional Bank Head for Fidelity Bank, Mr Nosa Orumwense, at a ceremony to officially hand over the building to the school’s leadership.

It was gathered that the leading financial institution comprehensively renovated the one-storey administrative block to address infrastructural challenges faced by the school.

“For us at Fidelity Bank, this project represents more than a building. It represents opportunity, progress, and a shared commitment to building a better future for our youths here in Enugwuabo Ufuma and beyond.

“By improving the educational infrastructure of this community, we are providing students and teachers with an environment that promotes learning, discipline, and pride,” Mr Orumwense stated.

On her part, the Commissioner for Education, Professor Ngozi Chuma-Udeh, who represented the Governor of Anambra State, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, described the project as a true demonstration of corporate social responsibility.

“Corporate social responsibility is what gives an organisation its human nature. What Fidelity Bank has done reflects compassion and a genuine commitment to touching lives,” she said.

“This school was earlier placed on an emergency list due to the deplorable condition of its buildings. During my last visit, I was genuinely concerned about the safety of both students and teachers. Today, the school wears a new look, thanks to Fidelity Bank’s support,” she added.

The Commissioner also expressed the state government’s appreciation to Fidelity Bank, saying, “We thank Fidelity Bank for this intervention, which clearly demonstrates the true meaning of corporate social responsibility – making tangible impacts that improve lives and strengthen communities.”
