The Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje, has commended Nigerian Breweries Plc for its contribution to the education sector in Kano State, saying the brewing giant has made his job easier.

The Governor was speaking while receiving a block of eight classrooms, furniture, library and books at the Government Technical College, Gwale, donated by the brewing company.

Also speaking at the event, the Emir of Kano, His Royal Highness Muhammadu Sanusi II, in a goodwill message, said Nigerian Breweries has added value to Kano people through its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) platform, adding “Maltina is no doubt our pride in CSR and other corporate bodies in Kano State should follow suit.”

Responding, the Managing Director, Nigerian Breweries Plc, Mr Jordi Bel, said: “Kano State occupies a special place in the planning of Nigerian Breweries. We are proud to be a veritable partner to Kano State.

“Kano is special to us, as it supports us towards achieving success. Kano is home to Maltina in the North. And this is our fourth educational project in five years in Kano,” he said.
