Sterling Bank Plc, Nigeria\u2019s leading commercial bank, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Africa EDUCare, a disruptive innovation educational and healthcare solutions company, to transform higher education in Nigeria with Unify; Sterling\u2019s innovative education management solution.<\/p>\n

The signed MoU is conceived to deploy Unify to transform education and administrative management, and to enable Africa EDUCare realize its dream of floating the Maranatha Institute of Science and Technology (MiST); a NextGen STEAM university with an innovative curriculum focused on Sciences, Technology, Engineering, Agribusiness, and Medicine curriculum.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the signing ceremony in Lagos, Mr. Obinna Ukachukwu, Divisional Head for Business Growth and Transaction Banking at Sterling Bank, said education remains and continues to be one of the five critical sectors of Sterling\u2019s focus under our HEART strategy. The other sectors are Health, Agriculture, Renewable Energy, and Transportation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe that continued investments in these sectors are key to ensuring the nation\u2019s survival, growth, and prosperity beyond this generation,\u201d Ukachukwu said.<\/p>\n

Obinna continued by saying that Unify is conceived to transform the administration of education at all levels in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cAt Sterling, we believe that Nigerian tertiary education needs to be reengineered before it can be empowered to transform industry, and the corporate world, with the kind of adequately skilled manpower required for the desired impact.\u201d<\/p>
