He said that the company would continue to support LAWMA’S initiatives geared towards ensuring that Lagos State remains environmentally healthy place. According to him, our mission in Eko Disco is to empower the quality of lives of our customers, employees, community and other stakeholders. We are not just doing this because we are in business but to impacts on the environment where we do business.
“CSR is important component of our strategic architecture of our business, we have donated 500 overall to employee of LAWMA for effective service delivery in the State
“The essence is to enhance and uplift our society in ensuring that we make more positive impacts in the environment where we do business, he said.
The EKEDC boss said that the company is also working towards extending its CSR initiatives programes to other corporate organisations in the State, like Lagos State Transport Management Authority (LASTMA).
“The company’s ongoing CRS initiatives will be continuous, consistence and focused. We are going to be doing it in a strategic way to ensure that we continue to add value in the environment where we do business
“As I speak today, we are also planning similar initiative with LASMA; you can see that there is a huge gap, whenever there is heavy down pour, LASMA personnel working on the highway often hid for rain.
