The West African Ceramics Limited has shown its commitment to developing human capital in Nigeria with the presentation of three postgraduate degree scholarships to deserving students of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State.
According to a statement on Monday, the Managing Director of the company, Mr Bhaskar Rao, represented by the Director, Human Resources, Alhaji Abdulraheem Bello, said the scholarship was a strategic attempt by the organisation to contribute to human development in Nigeria.
He said, “The foundation of any modern and progressive society is a skilled and motivated workforce. Contributing to building a skilled human capital base is one of the most important ways we can contribute to Nigeria’s development and we are passionate about this.”
Rao noted that the scholarship afforded the company an opportunity to invest in people who will build the future of the country.
“Architectural designs define people and their culture. If we look around the world, we see masterpieces like the Roman Coliseum, Notre Dame, the Empire State Building, Sydney Opera House and the Taj Mahal, to mention a few. With this scholarship, we are investing in people who will build a Nigeria that will be more beautiful and inspiring,” the MD said.
The beneficiaries are Samuel Agatha, Okudo Chibueze and Christian Nze.
