Ecobank Nigeria has concluded arrangement to\u00a0host a webinar to provide insightful information on how banks can effectively help educational institutions and faith based organisations through digital banking offerings.<\/p>\n

The webinar which is part of Ecobank Digital Series scheduled to holds on Tuesday, February 16 2021, is titled\u00a0\u201cDigital Enablement\u00a0of education and faith: Winning tools for new normal lifestyle\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Vice Chancellor, Covenant University, Ota, Ogun State, Prof. Humphrey Adebayo, is expected to be the Keynote Speaker while Commissioner of Education, Ekiti State, Mrs Olabimpe Aderiye,\u00a0National President, National Association of Proprietors of Private Schools (NAPPS), Chief \u2018Yomi Otubela and\u00a0Former Deputy Managing Director, Fidelity Bank,\u00a0Alhaji Mohammed Lawan Balarabe\u00a0will be Guest Speakers.<\/p>\n

Speaking ahead of the event,\u00a0Moji Oguntoyinbo, Segment Head, Public Sector and Agribusiness, Ecobank Nigeria, said the webinar is set to highlight the opportunities in digital banking for schools and faith-based organisations in the face of the Covid 19 pandemic, stressing that, functional digital technologies are being employed by these institutions as a shaping force and additional channels to reach a wider audience in addition to their existing members and patrons, while maintaining the core principles on which they are premised.<\/p>\n

According to her,\u00a0\u201cThis is an opportunity to assure educational institutions and faith based organisations that we have in place top-notch digital solutions that would enhance their collections and transactions while they face their core responsibilities. Coming in the wake of the pandemic, technology-based solutions are touching all aspects of life. Institutions which are ill-prepared to adapt to these changes are challenged by inadequate funding to obtain digital devices, urbanize the teaching staff, provide high speed internet, source for eBooks, create and manage apps as well as social media. In addition, involvement of distributive technology in the performance of their duties to society, is severely limited.\u00a0Our products are designed to bridge this gap and meet funding and other financial needs quickly and efficiently.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mrs. Oguntoyinbo also announced that the bank will launch two products during the event. They are the \u00a0Ecobank Stewardship Account and Ecobank School Bundle respectively, for religious and educational institutions at all levels.<\/p>
