In line with its policy to support youth empowerment, education, and excellence among Nigerian youngsters, EgyptAir has rewarded the commitment and hard work of Miss. Deborah Olatunji, a student of Holy Saviours College, Isolo with a free ticket to Dubai for winning the 10th edition of the National Travel Essay Competition (NTEC 2019).
The airline was further magnanimous to present a second free ticket to the Parent or Guardian of the successful student of the writing contest in order to allow her travel to Dubai together with any family member of her choice.
The District Manager of the airline in Nigeria, Mr. Muharram Abdelrahman presented the two (2) free tickets to Miss Deborah Olatunji in the company of her Aunt, Dr. Ayodeji Adewakun, during a Courtesy Visit to his office recently.
“EgyptAir is an airline that believes strongly in securing the future of the younger generation because we believe they are the leaders of tomorrow. With this in mind, we have supported the National Travel Essay Competition since it started 10 years ago in 2009 and we are committed to continue to strengthen our relationship and support for Travel & Business News, organizers of the competition as we join hands with them to raise future aviation professionals, said Mr. Abdelrahman.
In a related development, EgyptAir also recently took its humanitarian campaign efforts to the streets by supporting the Rotary Club of Lagos District 9110, Nigeria with one (1) Business Class and Two (2) Economy Class Tickets to support the club in its drive to better understand and create greater awareness about the treatment of children with Alzheimer disease.
Dr. Abiodun Osiyemi, President of the Rotary Club of Lagos expressed delight in the partnership with EgyptAir and thanked the airline for identifying with the goals and aspirations of the Rotary Club International in the spirit of service to humanity.
Similarly, EgyptAir extended its arm of fellowship to the less privileged by joining forces with the Landmark Group to support the Music Dance Hall Festival which held recently at the Landmark Centre, Victoria Island with proceeds from the show being donated to support various humanitarian initiatives aimed at easing the burdens of the less privileged in society.
