During the commissioning of the borehole at the PHC, yesterday, the Divisional Head, Internal Control Operation of the commercial bank, Daniel Okori, said: “What we are doing today is not different from what we have been doing to communities, local councils and states across the country.
“What Fidelity Bank stands for is value and respect for her numerous customers across the board. As a well-structured organisation, wherever our customers are located, we try to reach and touch their lives positively because we value and respect them.”

The Commissioner for Health, Dr Shekwongaza Gwamna, who was represented by the permanent secretary, John Damina, commended the bank’s good gesture of distinguishing itself in providing the essential needs of people in the community.
In a keynote, the bank’s head of CSR, Mrs Victoria Abuka, said Fidelity Bank incorporated giving in the ‘Fidelity Helping Hands Programme’ and the ‘Fidelity food bank’, major initiatives of the bank to help tackle the challenges of its immediate communities of customers and food security in the country.
