Sokoto State Governor Rt. Hon. Aminu Waziri Tambuwal has said that the Fidelity Bank Helping Hands Programme (FHHP), an arm of the Bank’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practice is a viable tool in mitigating the social inequalities in the country. Governor Tambuwal made the commendation in Sokoto at the weekend while commissioning the Sokoto State Orphanage Home renovated by staff of Fidelity Bank Plc. in Sokoto.
Speaking at the occasion, Governor Tambuwal said that such gestures are rare especially among organizations whose operations are commercially driven. “I must say that I am elated by the wonderful gesture from the Bank”. Though part of the Bank’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) practice, Governor Tambuwal insisted that Fidelity Bank’s action is a testament to the enthusiasm and concern for the welfare of the people of Sokoto State, especially, the less privileged in the society.
“The project of this magnitude and its choice is an indication that Fidelity Bank is truly acting according to script of empowering the good people of Sokoto State and by extension, Nigeria”. He praised the Management of the Bank for their vision and for coming to the aid of the state government. Rt. Hon. Tambuwal also promised to take proper care of the Home and charged other corporate organisations in the state to emulate the good work Fidelity Bank is doing.
