Recognizing Nigerian teachers whose dedication continues to inspire the nation.
As the world marked World Teachers’ Day, Page Financials, one of Nigeria’s leading consumer finance institutions, took the celebration beyond words by recognizing two exceptional public school teachers whose dedication continues to shape young minds and inspire communities. Through a social media campaign, the company invited Nigerians to nominate teachers who truly deserve to be celebrated. From the heartwarming nominations received, two teachers stood out. The first visit was to Ago Iwoye Methodist Primary School, Ebute Meta, where Mrs. Ipinlola Olaiya, who has been teaching since 1991, was rewarded with a ₦100,000 cash gift courtesy of Page Financials. Overwhelmed with emotion, she almost bursted into tears as she revealed she had been “trusting God for financial support”; and the gesture came just at the right time. From there, the team proceeded to Anglican Comprehensive High School, Ipaja, to surprise Mr. Fashina, a Creative Arts teacher who has spent over 24 years inspiring creativity and confidence in students. On receiving his ₦100,000 reward, he shouted “Jesus!”; a genuine outburst of gratitude. He later explained that his means of mobility had broken down and fixing it had been a major concern. The Principal of the school, Venerable Adeniji, appreciated Page Financials for the thoughtful gesture, noting that “Mr. Fashina has won the Best Teacher of the Year award more than twice in the school. His consistency and passion for teaching are truly admirable.” Speaking on the initiative, Ola Moses, Head of Marketing and Corporate Communications at Page Financials, said the company’s gesture aligns with its mission to empower everyday heroes and inspire hope. “Teachers are the quiet architects of our nation’s future. Their sacrifices often go unnoticed, but their impact lasts for generations. At Page, we believe in empowering those who empower others, and teachers embody that spirit every day,” he said. Since its inception in 2014, Page Financials has remained committed to empowering Nigerians through innovative loan offerings, investment options, and payment solutions designed to make financial life easier. Beyond financial services, the company continues to support social impact causes that promote excellence, service, and community growth. This World Teachers’ Day, Page Financials reminds us that behind every success story is a teacher who believed, and a company that chooses to celebrate them.
