The Chairman, Board of Directors for Mainstream Energy Solutions Limited, Col Sani Bello (Rtd) has said that times are changing, and that only the educated can take part in changing the future.
He emphasized the importance of education in shaping the future and urged the stakeholders to ensure children remain in school.
He spoke when Mainstream Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Mainstream Energy Solutions Limited commissioned the newly renovated and equipped Madaki Primary School in Zungeru.
According to a statement on Friday, by Head, Corporate Communications, Mainstream Energy Solutions Limited, Olugbenga Adebola the development is a remarkable display of the company’s corporate social responsibility strategy.
Adebola stated that this maiden intervention project showcased the foundation’s determination to revolutionize the socio-economic landscape of the community after the takeover of operations at the hydropower plant.
He explained that the Madaki primary school was built in 1990 and like many public primary schools had been plagued by infrastructural decay.
He, however, said Mainstream Foundation’s intervention has breathed new life into it.
According to him, at the commissioning ceremony, dignitaries such as the representatives of the emir of Kagara, the Emir of Minna and the Local government Chairman of Wushishi were all present to witness the transformative work carried out on the school.
The Executive Secretary of Mainstream Foundation, Mr. Siraj Abdullah, reiterated the Foundation’s commitment to community development.
He said: “We assure the Chairman and the people of the community that this work given to us will not stop until it is achieved.”
He thanked the civil project team of the Foundation and acknowledged the hard work put into making the inauguration a reality.
Adebola said: “Mainstream Foundation’s intervention in the school extends beyond improving the infrastructure and providing furniture as the teachers have also been earmarked for training to provide holistic teaching and learning improvement. This approach underscores the foundation’s dedication to creating a lasting impact.
“As Mainstream Foundation continues to transform the landscape of Zungeru, its focus on education, environment, health, and community empowerment serves as a shining example of responsible corporate citizenship. With projects like Madaki Primary School, the foundation is rewriting the narrative of community development in that geographic corridor.”
