As part of its Corporate Social Responsibilities, C&G Aleksa Company Limited, a mining firm based in the Western Region has fulfilled a significant social intervention project - for the Southern Command of the Ghana Armed Forces, at Teshie in Accra.
The project involves the re-construction and asphalting of the main entrance road that leads to the administration block; asphalting of visitors’ car park, as well as, tarring of the entire 300metre square Parade Square.
The work also included installation of CCTV cameras and other security fittings at the Command, at the cost of two million cedis (GHc 2m).
The successful completion of this magnificent project, has visibly transformed the military base, particularly, the front view. The projects have already been handed over to the authorities of the Southern Command, led by Brigadier-General Oppong-Peprah.
The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the company, Mr. Simon Aydin, said the project was in line with the company’s civic responsibilities to society, mostly at its mining enclave in the Wassa Amenfi area.
He also mentioned, plans to commence the second phase of the project at the Southern Command which involves construction of all link-roads within the Command.
Mr. Aydin further said, the company is determined and very committed to contribute its quota to society, as a responsible and law-abiding entity, in order to lessen the burden on government.
He assured that, the company would not renege on its corporate social responsibilities, adding that, these interventions form the “core values” of the company.
Other places that have benefitted from the mining firm’s social responsibility projects, include, Sraha, Dwobo, Ayem, Amanase, Akatrika, as well as, Ajakamanso all in the Western region.
For instance, the six-unitclassroom facility the company promised the Amanase community is near completion whiles a clinic would start as soon as the completion of the school.
