West African Container Terminal-APM Terminals Nigeria has commissioned and handed over a newly renovated 10-room Teachers’ Quarters in its host community of Ogu, Ogu/Bolo Local Government Area, Rivers State.
According to a statement by the terminal operator on Wednesday, the project was part of its commitment to advancing education and community development.
The statement added that the facility, which was originally built by the company in 2012, has now been upgraded to provide teachers with more modern, comfortable, and conducive accommodation.
“The project, which falls under the company’s thematic area of education and infrastructure development, is designed to provide decent and comfortable accommodation for teachers serving in the community.
By improving teachers’ living conditions, the initiative aims to boost their morale, encourage retention, and ultimately contribute to raising the standard of education in Ogu,” the statement read in part.
Education is at the core of what we preach in WACT and our parent entity, the APM Terminals Group. The upgraded facility reaffirms our commitment to corporate social responsibility initiatives. We believe that teachers need to be taken care of. If they are not in the right frame of mind, the impact on the students will be minimal. With the rising cost of accommodation, we hope that they find suitable shelter in this project and give the best to the students, the Ogu Community, and society at large. Our shared commitment to growing side by side with the Ogu community remains the bedrock of our CSR initiatives,” Obadagbonyi said.
