Ecobank Nigeria, an affiliate of Ecobank Group, the leading pan-African banking group, in partnership with Opolo Global Innovation Ltd has embarked on the promotion of digital skills among students of Trinity School, Ojodu and The Harpers School, Gbagada Phase 2, Lagos on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of its annual Ecobank Day.

Ecobank Day is Ecobank’s flagship corporate and social responsibility (CSR) event on which Ecobank and its employees give back to their communities.

The activity aligned with the launch of the new three-year Ecobank Day campaign launched across Ecobank’s 33 African affiliates. The theme of the campaign is ‘Transforming Africa Through Education’. The first year of the campaign focuses on digital education and creating opportunities for children and youth to receive the digital skills that they will need for the jobs of tomorrow. Ecobank will be constructing 33 IT laboratories across its footprint as a key part of its Ecobank Day initiatives.
