By providing food to thousands of impoverished Nigerians and assisting communities throughout the nation, Airtel Nigeria has launched its yearly 5 Days of Love campaign, a charitable endeavour aimed at spreading the happiness and cosiness of the holiday season.
The program, which is in its tenth year and has the theme “5 Days; 6 Cities; 6,000 Meals,” got underway in Lagos on Monday, December 16, 2024, at Holy Cross Cathedral School in Onikan. One thousand people, including children, young people, and the elderly, received packed lunches. The occasion produced a joyous, celebratory, humorous, and entertaining mood.
Airtel Nigeria CEO Dinesh Balsingh, speaking on behalf of Lagos Regional Operations Director, Airtel Nigeria, Peter Francis, highlighted that the 5 Days of Love festive period program’s wider significance extended beyond the provision of meals at this year’s event. “At Airtel, we take great satisfaction in being a people-centered company. In addition to serving food, this event serves as a significant means of fostering relationships with local communities, sharing warm, joyful, and communal moments, and fostering a lively environment of love and celebration.
Today serves as a reminder of the fundamental principles of happiness, love, compassion, and humanity that underpin both this project and Airtel’s goal. We can continue to have a beneficial, long-lasting effect if we work together. The 5 Days of Love train goes to Borno on Tuesday, December 17, Abuja on Wednesday, December 18, Enugu and Rivers States on Thursday, December 19, and finally ends in Osun State on Friday, December 20, 2024, after the Lagos event is successfully concluded.
Speaking at the ceremony as well, Hon. Muibi Alade Folawiyo, Executive Chairman of the Lagos Island East Local Government Development Area, praised Airtel Nigeria for its considerate effort to spread love among people and communities and urged the telecom to continue the program. “This is an incredible gesture of generosity, and I am grateful to Airtel for its commitment to improving people’s lives and fostering love.”
He expressed his gratitude to Airtel Nigeria for bringing happiness to this area of Lagos. Airtel Nigeria’s dedication to improving Nigerians’ lives via significant community support and engagement is reflected in the 5 Days of Love campaign.
Airtel continues to demonstrate its role as a socially conscious company by encouraging unity and goodwill, which has a long-lasting positive effect both during the holiday season and all year long.
