Education in rural communities receive boost on solar power kits donation by Bluetti

Bluetti, provider of renewable energy solutions, has taken another significant step by donating 50 solar power kits to Teach for Nigeria (TFN) with a special focus on assisting the pupils of Wesley Nursery and Primary School, Oke-Ogbe, Ogun State, through its Lighting an Africa Family (LAAF) project.

The event held at Wesley Nursery and Primary School, saw Oke-Ogbe community leaders and TFN officials coming together to witness the donation. The occasion marked a significant step in bridging the gap in access to electricity and educational resources in the Oke-Ogbe community.

TFN Lead, Jonathan Obiaraije noted, “We appreciate Bluetti for this donation; it is not just about lighting up rooms but it will also aid pupils’ academic performances. The absence of electricity has posed a significant challenge, necessitating the use of improvised dangerous lighting alternatives to do homework or not doing it at all. Bluetti’s generous gesture is empowering the next generation and paving the way for a brighter tomorrow.

According to the school’s headteacher, Odukoya Risikat Iyabosola” these solar power kits will greatly improve the pupils’ learning. Many of them are forced to forgo studying at home due to the absence of lighting, resulting in a significant hindrance to their academic progress but with access to solar power, they now have the opportunity to study beyond daylight hours.”
