Nwagboh further noted that the bank continues to support environmental conservation through various initiatives nationwide and remains a proud partner of the Nigerian Conservation Foundation (NCF). “Tree planting is an integral part of our climate action and resilience plan, and our goal is to consistently expand our environment-friendly operations.” Nwagboh added. “We are delighted for this partnership with Greenfingers Wildlife Initiative. It is one we intend to nurture, as we believe there’s more to be done to protect our environment.” Also speaking at the event, Mr. Chinedu Mogbo, Founder of Greenfingers Wildlife Initiative, commended Fidelity Bank for its proactive commitment to environmental sustainability.

Beyond enhancing environmental safety, planting trees contributes to beautifying our surroundings and restoring balance to nature.” Mogbo stated.
