The Paramount Chief of Abene Kwahu, Daasebre Akuamoah Agyapong II, has commended Zoomlion Ghana Limited.
He said the success story of Zoomlion makes Ghana a true sovereign state with its own indigenous companies solving Ghanaian problems locally for the benefit of the people.
Daasebre Agyapong said, if not for the active cleaning of the environs and dredging of the Odaw and other rivers in the Greater Accra Region, the floods experienced in Accra would have been very devastating.
Daasebre who is the President of the Kwahu Abene Traditional Council was speaking at a gathering of his people and the management and staff of Zoomlion Ghana Limited who were at his palace to pay a courtesy call. He urged Zoomlion to continue with its innovative works to make Ghana a better place.
The Managing Director of Zoomlion Ghana Limited, Mrs. Gloria Opoku Anti who led the Zoomlion team expressed her company’s readiness to collaborate with stakeholders especially the traditional authorities to help propel the agenda of clean and green environment across Ghana.
She introduced the One Million Bin Project (1MBP) to the Kwahuhene by presenting twenty (20) made in Ghana waste bins to the traditional area to facilitate waste collection at the palace and surroundings.
“Nana Dasebre is highly recognized in Ghana and especially in the Kwahu Traditional Area where Ghana thrives in terms of tourism and that is the reason why Zoomlion decided on dealing directly with the chiefs and people of the traditional area, so that Nananom will inculcate in the people the habit of waste collection and management to further boost the tourism opportunities in this area”
She presented assorted drinks and boxes of water with branded diaries, calendars and an undisclosed amount of money to the chief and his people
