Polaris Bank partners NCF, extends tree planting initiative to Abuja, Anambra

Polaris Bank, in a robust display of its commitment to environmental sustainability, has expanded its nationwide tree-planting initiative in collaboration with the Nigerian Conservation Foundation (NCF).

The latest exercise took place at Government Secondary School, Gwagwalada, in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on October 14, 2024.

It followed a similar event at Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University in Anambra State just days earlier where Professor K.K Nwozor commended the nank for its conservation efforts.

The initiative is part of a broader strategy by Polaris Bank to align its operations with the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021–2030), which stresses the urgent need for land restoration and resilience against desertification and drought.

The theme resonates with the 2024 World Environment Day, underscoring the bank’s proactive stance in promoting sustainable practices aimed at restoring degraded lands and enhancing biodiversity across Nigeria.

Osazuwa Igbinoba, Directorate Head for Abuja, articulated the bank’s ethos, stating: “Sustainability is embedded in our business strategy and actions at Polaris Bank.”

He noted that the tree-planting efforts not only aim to restore natural ecosystems but also focus on planting economic trees to ensure a sustainable environment for future generations.

Chiwetalu Nwatu, Directorate Head for the South East, echoed this sentiment by emphasizing that sustainability is at the heart of the Bank’s operations, encompassing more than just financial services.

He noted that Polaris Bank’s approach integrates responsible banking with societal empowerment and environmental responsibility, all grounded in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles.

The significance of tree planting as a countermeasure against climate change cannot be overstated.

Thus, the initiative addresses critical issues such as soil erosion, air quality improvement, and climate regulation through carbon dioxide absorption.

The bank’s efforts are not isolated; they form part of a nationwide campaign that has seen similar initiatives executed at various educational institutions and community reserves across Nigeria.

The Bank’s nationwide tree planting exercises were held recently at Tai Solarin University, Ijebu Ode in Ogun State on July 1; Ajingi Community Reserve, Kunkurawa in Kano State on August 30th; and University of Ibadan, Oyo State on October 3.

These events illustrated Polaris Bank’s commitment to sustainable development and environmental restoration.

This project not only enhances local ecosystems but also serves as a public call to action on the importance of environmental preservation.

Through collaborative efforts like these, Polaris Bank seeks to inspire individuals, communities and organizations to engage in environmental restoration and contribute to a sustainable future for all.

Polaris Bank, in partnership with the NCF, remains steadfast in its commitment to environmental stewardship, community well-being and corporate responsibility, as demonstrated through these impactful tree-planting activities.

Through this project, the bank aims to inspire individuals, communities and organizations to foster a culture of sustainability throughout Nigeria.
