Keystone Bank partners NCF on tree planting campaign

In a bid to ensure sustainable cities and communities under the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 11 of the United Nations (UN), Keystone Bank Limited has partnered with the Nigerian Conservation Foundation (NCF) on a tree planting campaign in Lagos State. The trees are expected to absorb carbon dioxide in the environment and create an ecosystem that will help to reduce pollution.   

Speaking on the campaign in Lagos , Executive Director of the bank, Mr. Adeyemi Odusanya,  said some staff members of Keystone Bank recently visited the NCF office in Lagos to plant some Mahogany trees.

 He said the objective was to further the  operations of the bank with the Sustainable Development Goals , adding that under the arrangement, NCF will nurture the plants to maturity.

The SDGs are a collection of 17 global goals designed to be a blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They were set in 2015 by the UN General Assembly and intended to be achieved by the year 2030.
