FLYFIRE:

The Chief educator-in-Chief, go home, lie down, use your head & later come back & tell us what investment ever prospered in your north.

Are you not a northerner? Why not tell us yourself ?

TSRC:

There are many Worthy causes he can spend the money on in the Niger Delta.

The Niger Delta needs infrastructure, good water and poverty alleviation schemes.

I am not saying he is wrong for donating to the north, but those people asking him to donate to his region are not wrong either.

Wigwe did not donate this money to the North.

Access bank spearheaded a fundraiser to raise funds for Northern education.
It would have been fraud if he diverted this cash to projects in the South.

Group Managing Director, Access Bank Plc., Herbert Wigwe, has reaffirmed the bank’s commitment to the educational development of children in Nigeria, saying it is an important tool to sustaining the future of the country.

Wigwe said this while addressing attendees at the Access Bank/UNICEF Charity Shield Polo Tournament which held at the Guards Polo Club, United Kingdom.

Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, and British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Laing, were part of those who attended this year’s Charity Polo Tournament, Igbere TV reports.

“The number of out-of-school children in Nigeria is very worrisome, and if not tackled adequately does not bode well for the future of Nigeria. Access Bank identified this problem over 10 years ago and through the polo tournament has made considerable strides in improving the educational system in Nigeria,” Wigwe said.

“We will not relent in our efforts to ensure that Nigerian children are given the requisite educational foundation to succeed. So far, we have been able to raise over N1 billion and every kobo will be invested providing educational infrastructure, starting one Northern state at a time because that is where we find the highest number of out-of-school and displaced children.”

Wigwe further said that government buy-in was integral to the achievement of the financial institution’s set goals, thanking the Kaduna State Government for its support in the implementation of its projects.

Access Bank recently completed the refurbishment of a 12,000-capacity school and is set to complete another that will cater for an additional 1,200 students at the end of July.

From my money ba? They should share that money equally across all regions. No one asked the north to prioritize religion over quality education.

Northerners using all these terrorism to make so much money for themselves...

Biko is Wigwe a southerner,



If he is, he is MAD

Don't mind the efulefu, he s just eyeservicing. Jonathan built over 160 almajiri schools and 9 universities in the North, have they applauded him for that? Instead they made sure he's retired by force in other to bring in this dead wood called buhari. So this one he is doing is just for nothing and more So, the terrorists up north won't attend. They prefer mosque .... stupid people .

Mr Wigwe, from ur name, I understand you are a southeasterner may be Southeast or southsouth, but it is unfortunate that you refused to learn from history. Towards 2015, Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan built close to 200 schools for these northerners and what did they do, am sure you are aware. Now you are trying to satisfy the same set of ingrates. I must tell you, u are totally on ur own.

These Northerners keep getting everything on a platter of gold, free school, easy job etc, while Southerners struggle for every damn thing especially South East.
Why can't he build those schools in the south or empower budding entrepreneur?

Nigerian Banks Biko start to spray the money.

Build infrastructure, developed the country plix.

We love our Northern Brothers. Together we shall make Nigeria great. Our leaders fear unity between North and south.

Let us finish them with love.

Oga you need to strategize well b4 wasting your profits from well meaning Nigerians. How can you even consider spending such huge amount on a part that condemns Westernization? They will soon destroy any and every thing you use that money on. Senseless sense.
Re: Herbert Wigwe Dedicates N1 Billion To Build Schools In The Northern by ElsonMorali: 10:13pm On Jul 24, 2019
Good gesture. True Nigerian patriot. The problem of education in the north is more of lack of qualified teachers to take the part.

Still, well done.

What happened to the ones that were built in fmr president Goodluck's administration?

That money should be channeled into healthcare biko
Good question.

Sanusi Lamido said the British did not want the North to be educated so that the North will continue to be obedient fools. Now it is the Northern elites who do not want the TALAKAWAS to be educated so that they can continue to be useful idiots.

Abeg, na who do the North this kind of evil spirit?
