Airtel Touching Lives TV Premiere
Coming at a time when the current security situation in the country has rendered so many homeless, while several others have become internally displaced, the Airtel Touching Lives TV Series unveiled recently at the Oriental Hotel in Lagos stands to be a step in the right direction both for the telecom company and the less privileged who stands to benefit from the gesture.
Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Airtel Nigeria, Mr. Segun Ogunsanya, reaffirms the company’s commitment to empowering underprivileged Nigerians through its revolutionary CSR intervention tagged Touching Lives.
Speaking, at the premiere of the series Mr. Ogunsanya noted that well-meaning individuals and corporate organisations should commit effort towards extending help to the underprivileged as this will go a long way in creating a prosperous society for all.
According to Ogunsanya, Touching lives marks a significant milestone in Airtel’s history of CSR interventions in the country as it is a major philanthropic gesture by the telecom company to connect emotionally with Nigerians to alleviate the suffering of helpless people across the country.
“Airtel Touching Lives underscores our determination to enrich lives and contribute to humanity. And the premiere marks the beginning of a new journey in providing empowerment and a major lifeline for thousands of Nigerians.
The series is a reality television show with an overriding objective of identifying underprivileged persons/people with needs and offering to them, solid platforms and opportunities that will emancipate these individuals from the shackles of poverty, despair and hopelessness.
