He said, “To you, it might look like a token, but to us, it means a lot. This staff bus will relieve our staff members of transportation hassles. On behalf of both our junior and adhoc staff, we appreciate you and we look forward to more partnership with you”.

Responding, the Divisional Head, Corporate Services of LOTUS bank, Mr. Funso Tooki, stated that the gesture was borne out of the company’s vision to make environmental and social impact in their communities of operation.
