The Nigerian Postal Services (NIPOST) in its latest diversification strategy has unveiled new solar energy equipment product through its agency services arm to expand its operations.
The product is a contribution towards the attainment of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the federal government.
Speaking on this, Mr Ismail Adewusi, the Postmaster General of the Federation and NIPOST Chief Executive Officer (CEO), noted his agency was a key vehicle towards achieving the United Nations’ 2020 Agenda for SDGs in all countries.
Mr Adewusi, who was at the unveiling of Hansa Green Energy Solutions’ products in Abuja, added that NIPOST was open to partnerships that would be mutually beneficial and ensure effective and efficient service delivery and good governance.
“What we are witnessing here today, therefore, is the rediscovery of the same Post Office but in a different way. This time around, we are re-engineering and re-inventing NIPOST through collaborations with different stakeholders from the Public and Private Sectors.
“Also leveraging on technology to present an array of innovative products and services aimed at meeting the divergent needs of our people, this is just one of our ways of expanding the frontiers of business opportunities.
“The unveiling of Hansa Green Energy Solutions, product of Ukpa Hansa Energy Solutions Limited today is a result of such collaborations through our agency service and our contributions toward the attainment of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the Federal Government.
“Today, the Post is a key vehicle to achieving the United Nations 2020 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals in all countries.
“As part of the world postal network of over 660,000 post offices, NIPOST is placed in a vantage position with about 5,000 postal outlets consisting of full-fledged post offices, postal agencies and post shops with over 12,000 employees across the country to offer its agency services.
“We are making available post office counters nationwide to Ukpa Hansa Energy Solutions Limited to market its products to Nigerians.
“This will help in the advocacy for clean energy by delivering energy solutions. From today this service would be available in our post offices nationwide on demand by customers.
“Permit me to state here that NIPOST is opened to partnership that will be mutually beneficial and ensure effective and efficient service delivery and good governance,” he said.
