SHARE

BY ASELEBE SADIK ADEWUYI

TECH Mahindra, a leading digital solutions company, has partnered the Africa Clean-up Initiative (ACI) to plant 40 trees on behalf of MTN Nigeria.

The tree planting exercise took place on Thursday, February 15, 2024, at Government Senior Model College, Badore, Ajah, a suburb of Lagos.

Speaking at the event, Mr Subrat Mansingh, Regional Sales Head, TECH Mahindra, said that the tree planting exercise was part of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) of the company to boost environmental  sustainability and climate action.

Mansingh said that his company undertakes a particular CSR project each year to give back to the environment.

According to him, the company is intentional in caring for the environment through its numerous CSR projects.

He noted that MTN had been his major client in Nigeria, adding that in 2023, TECH Mahindra planted 100 trees in India on behalf of MTN to boost environmental sustainability and climate action.

” We have planted 40 trees in this school for the benefit of the students.

“We intend to do this monthly; we hope to supply tree samplings in various communities in Lagos to promote the grow green initiative”.

He said that the company also undertook the clean-up of Elegushi Beach on Jan. 26, adding that he intends to sustain beach clean- up every quarterly.

Mrs Chibuzo Raphael-Daniels, MTN Nigeria, IT team member advised the students to cultivate the habit of caring for the environment through imbibing the practice of tree planting.

Raphael-Daniels expressed gratitude to Tech Mahindra for all it is doing for humanity and the environment.

Also speaking, Mr Elvis Umunna, Operations Lead for the African Clean-Up Initiative, the implementing partner, expressed delight in partnering with TECH Mahindra in the reduction of carbon footprints through the tree planting exercise.

Umunna noted that the students and staff of Government Model School, Badore defiled the intensity of the sun to commit to a course which in a few years time would be profitable to all.

According to him, the school stands to benefit a lot from the trees planted as some of them were of economic value, whose fruits can be eating, while othérs are capable of shielding them from the intensity of the sun.

He expressed gratitude to the management and staff of TECH Mahindra, MTN,  and the school for making the tree planting exercise a success.

The Principal  of the school,  Alhaja Azumi Ajikobi, while expressing gratitude for the honour done the school, said that the tree planting exercise would impact the school positively.

Ajikobi said that she would ensure that  the students of the school would sustain  and nurture the plants.

The event was facilitated by MTN Nigeria IT under its Chief Information Officer (CIO), Shoyinka Shodunke.
