This development, which took place on the sidelines of the 2024 Access Bank Charity Polo Tournament, builds on the Bank’s previous efforts having commissioned 30 blocks of two classrooms each at the tournament in 2023.
Upon completion of the project, Access Bank aims to double the number of enrollees in the Access Bank Fifth Chukker School, which has seen about 14,000 children benefiting from access to quality education and social welfare.
Speaking, managing director/chief executive officer, Access Bank, Roosevelt Ogbonna stated that the project is part of a broad mission to enhance educational opportunities for underprivileged children and ultimately alleviate poverty across Africa.
