AGA Donates Tricycles, Dustbins to Obuasi Municipal Assemblies

AngloGold Ashanti (AGA) Obuasi Mine has recently donated two tricycles and 400 dustbins to assist the Obuasi Municipal Assemblies in their Keeping Obuasi Clean Campaign (KOCC). The valuable equipment, amounting to GHC660,000, was presented during a brief ceremony. Richard Amoako Anshong, Communication Superintendent of AGA, revealed that cleanliness is a cornerstone of the company's 10-Year Socio-Economic Development Plan, which prompted the donation.

The tricycles and some of the dustbins, Anshong explained, were intended to contribute to the town's cleanliness and prevent litter. AGA is committed to undertaking significant development projects in Obuasi, but ensuring the city remains free from dirt is crucial, he emphasized. This is not the first time AGA has extended aid to the assemblies; they also donated dustbins and wheelbarrows in 2019.

Madam Roselove Appiah Kannin, the Obuasi Municipal Chief Executive, thanked AGA for the donation and urged more such contributions to aid the assemblies in managing the refuse situation in the mining town.
