Lagos, Nigeria – Union Bank of Nigeria, as part of its activities to mark the 2026 International Day of the Boy Child and in furtherance of its corporate social responsibility commitments, recently visited CMS Grammar School. Located in Bariga, Lagos, it is one of the country’s oldest and most prestigious boys’ secondary schools.
During the visit, a delegation from the Bank, led by Head of Corporate Banking and school alumnus Ali Kadiri, engaged with the school management and students to explore partnership opportunities and support for their educational initiatives.
As part of the engagement, Union Bank donated educational materials, including books and school bags, further demonstrating its commitment to student development.
