Tuesday, November 18, 2025 - In line with its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives, Julius Berger Nigeria PLC has donated a fully equipped Robotics Laboratory to Government Secondary School (GSS), Gwarinpa, Life Camp.
The new lab, stocked with robotics kits, computers, and
hands-on learning materials, is designed to give students practical experience
in technology, problem-solving, and innovation. The donation was met with
excitement as students and staff explored the facility during the handover
ceremony.
Project Coordinator for Region Central and North at Julius
Berger, Engr. Dr. Amodu Ismaila, highlighted the company’s long-standing
relationship with the school. “Gwarinpa Secondary School has long been a
neighbour to our camp, educating our children as well as others in the area,”
he said. “As a good corporate citizen, Julius Berger remains both a committed
partner and a responsible neighbour through various projects in the community.”
Dr. Ismaila explained that selecting GSS as the starting
point for the initiative reflects the company’s strategy to kickstart its
technology-focused CSR programs, with the full support of the Managing
Director. He added, “ICT forms the backbone of modern development, enabling
digital learning and emerging technologies like artificial intelligence. Once
ICT facilities are in place, continuous upgrading and smart classroom
initiatives ensure steady progress.”
Since Julius Berger is close to me, you are the only
organisation I can easily run to. Before I came here, I saw the set of student
furniture donated by Julius Berger—very beautiful and durable. We hope this
partnership will continue.”
Members of Julius Berger’s delegation also engaged directly
with students, emphasizing the importance of technology skills and encouraging
them to maximize the new laboratory’s potential.
The donation goes beyond providing physical tools—it
represents an investment in young minds and their future potentials. Through
initiatives like this, Julius Berger continues to cultivate the next generation
of problem-solvers and innovators, reinforcing its belief that empowering
students today builds a brighter, stronger Nigeria tomorrow.
Over the years, the company’s CSR efforts have consistently impacted communities across the country. Guided by the philosophy of “building beyond infrastructure,” Julius Berger ensures its influence extends from construction sites to classrooms, homes, and public institutions, proving that true development begins with empowering people.
