BOI Donates Relief Materials To NEMA

The Bank of Industry has donated some relief materials to the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

The managing director of BOI, Olasupo Olusi, said the gesture demonstrated the bank‘s commitment to ensuring inclusiveness in the country.

„Today, we are here not just as individuals but as one community, united in compassion and solidarity.
„The challenges we have faced recently, whether due to natural calamities, social or economic hardships, have tested our resilience. However, in times of adversity, the strength of our spirit truly shines.

„I stand before you today humbled by the generosity and efforts of so many who have come together to provide relief for those in need.

„This distribution of relief materials is not just an act of charity but a demonstration of our commitment to ensuring that no one is left behind. It reminds us that we can overcome any obstacle together,“ he said.
The BOI boss commended all those who made the event a reality, saying, „Your efforts are a testament to the power of kindness and community.“ He said the materials were only a temporary solution, although vital for immediate relief.
He said:“ Our true goal is to rebuild, restore, and create a future where every person can thrive without the fear of hunger, without the pain of displacement, and without the weight of uncertainty.

To those receiving help today, I want you to know that you are not alone. We are here with you and will continue to stand with you as we move forward, hand in hand.

I encourage all of us to continue looking out for one another, to lend a helping hand whenever we can, and never to lose hope. Together, we will rise from these challenges stronger than before,“ Olusi said.
Responding, the NEMA Director-General, Zubaida Umar, thanked the BOI team for the kind gesture and assured them that the donated items would be used for their intended purpose.

I want to assure you on behalf of NEMA that we will judicially use these donated items for intended purposes.

We thank the board and management of BOI for this donation, and it will surely reach the target as envisaged by the bank.
