Keystone Bank Limited has donated a fully equipped ICT centre to Government Model School, Makurdi, Benue State.
Speaking during the handover ceremony, the bank’s Executive Director, North and Public Sector, Abubakar Usman Bello, said its commitment to improving access to digital tools and supporting educational development, particularly in underserved communities led to the donation of the newly revamped ICT centre equipped with modern digital infrastructure with laptops, workstations, ergonomic seating, air conditioning, a reliable inverter power system, and a well-furnished ICT hall.
“Education remains one of the strongest foundations for any thriving society. It shapes minds, creates opportunities, and prepares the next generation of leaders. At Keystone Bank, we recognise that investing in education is not just a responsibility but a strategic contribution to national development.
“This is why we continue to support initiatives that promote learning, innovation and access to quality educational resources,” Bello added.
Also speaking, its Head, North, Bala Umar, said the initiative aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 4, which focuses on quality education.
“This project is aimed at bridging infrastructure gaps, enhancing digital literacy, and preparing students for a technology-driven economy. We believe access to ICT facilities is critical to modern education and future workforce readiness,” he said.
In his remarks, Secretary to the State Government, Barr. Deborah Abeeh, representing the governor, commended Keystone Bank for the initiative, noting that it reflects a strong commitment to human capital development in the state.
She conveyed the appreciation of Governor Alia, who praised the bank and its management for the thoughtful intervention and their continued support for the education sector.
