Presenting the laptops to the Vice-Chancellor of KNUST, the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Zenith Bank Ghana Ltd, Mr. Henry Onwuzurigbo indicated that owning a laptop is a must in this ever-changing technology world, hence, the donation which is in line with their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) which spans across various sectors including education. ‘Our CSR initiatives underpin our commitment and dedication to giving back to the society in which we operate,’ he emphasised.
Mr. Onwuzurigbo lauded KNUST for championing and upholding the standards for quality education.

He, therefore, noted that the donation was the beginning of a long-term relationship between Zenith Bank Ghana Ltd and KNUST.
