The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Fidelity Bank, Mr. Reginald Ihejiahi, said during the closing ceremony of the fifth edition of the workshop, that it was a way the bank had decided to push for a better society.
He said, “We at Fidelity take corporate social responsibility as a necessity. We believe not only in beautification but investment in human beings. This we have done by organising a creative workshop for different participants. I am sure this will go a long way to assist the educational development in the country because creativity and innovativeness matter in the development of humans.”
He added that people who made good use of their youthful age must be encouraged, noting that it was a step in the right path.
“We are interested in the act for people to show what they are made of. This will go a long way to contribute to the society.
