PrimeTech, the design and engineering subsidiary of leading engineering construction company Julius Berger Nigeria Plc, has renovated an Abuja school and donated learning furniture to create a more conducive environment for pupils.
In a statement, it was noted that the firm delivered on its promise to renovate a hitherto dilapidated school and upgrade other tools required by the pupils for a conducive learning environment.
It stated, “The latest CSR activity by PrimeTech was a follow-up to an earlier effort that saw the company renovate some classrooms in the school, LEA Primary School, Sabo, Karmo, Abuja. Last week’s CSR initiative had the company donating 50 sets of student furniture (50 chairs and 50 desks) alongside three sets of teachers’ desks and chairs.
“The gesture, which marked the completion of a broader CSR intervention that began last year with the renovation of a classroom block and the distribution of literacy packs and insecticide-treated nets to promote learning and health among pupils, elicited excitement by staff and pupils of the school and lauded the company for rescuing them from the disadvantages earlier suffered.”
The HOD Infrastructure Department, Julius Berger-PrimeTech, Honesty Onyeyela, said, The last time we visited as PrimeTech, we were able to do some things as part of our Corporate Social Responsibility, and in that event a promise was made that PrimeTech Design and Engineering will add to the things that we did the last time. So, you remember the last time there was a renovation activity here. And so, on that occasion, we promised that PrimeTech was going to come back again and do what we are here for today. So today we are here in fulfilment of that promise to give 50 sets of desks and chairs for the students and three sets of desks and chairs for the teachers.”
“At PrimeTech, we believe that education is the major thing that can drive people, that can improve the lives of the people, and that can make the people see the better future ahead of them. We believe these chairs will improve your studies and make you better people in life. I want to encourage you as well that these items we are giving to you should be something that you will keep; you will take care of them such that years from now, when we look back, we will say that what we did as an investment was a good one.
He said, “Once again we are here to appreciate PrimeTech for their concern about us. We are pleased, and we don’t know how we will thank you people. You people are so great to us. We thank you very much.”
The statement noted that the landmark donation underscored PrimeTech’s belief that a conducive learning environment is fundamental to quality education.
“The furniture sets will enhance classroom experience for both pupils and teachers, reducing overcrowding and fostering better engagement during lessons. By honouring this promise, PrimeTech reaffirms its role as a socially responsible organisation committed to sustainable community development and educational support.
“PrimeTech is a design and engineering company with over a decade of inherited and own experience working in Nigeria. It has the vision to be the design and engineering partner of choice in the country by securing clients’ success through excellence and value,” it concluded.
