In the spirit of festive season and community empowerment, itel has once again demonstrated its commitment to enriching lives through its annual Love Always On Corporate Social Responsibility initiative.
This year’s project, themed “Light of Hope: Restoring Health and Brightening Lives in Kaduna,” focused on transforming the Primary Health Care Centre in Makera South, Kaduna State.Commissioned on December 13, 2025, the project delivered a comprehensive renovation of the facility, including complete repainting, the provision of mattresses, pillows, Mosquito nets, and bedsheets, as well as the installation of a robust solar energy system.
The solar solution comprises a 16-kWh battery, a 12-kW inverter, and 18 solar panels rated at 590 W each, ensuring uninterrupted power supply to support critical medical operations. This intervention aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3 and 7, advancing good health and well-being while promoting access to clean, sustainable energy.Speaking on the initiative, Dolapo Oloron-Nimbe, ATL Marketing Manager at itel, emphasized the brand’s commitment to touching lives where it matters most.“At itel, our philosophy ‘Enjoy Better Life’ drives everything we do.
