Yekepa, Nimba County Liberia: – As part of its community outreach activities, ArcelorMittal-Liberia (AML) has continued its collaboration with a local Community Based Organization (CBO) Elite Agro to help keep Yekepa Township clean and green.
AML in October 2021 signed a contract with Elite Agro and the local group has since ensured to keep the Township of Yekepa low, green and beautiful.
The group was awarded a one-year contract to cut and help manage the Yekepa wild vegetation which had overgrown around the township at that time.
Elite and Estates worked are closely working to implement the terms of the agreement, helping to keep Yekepa clean and green and beautiful.
Impressed by the general outlook of the township, Ramses Kumbuyah, ArcelorMittal-Liberia’s Estates Manager in Yekepa at the site of a recent cleanup said, he was grateful to management for the support and the provision of short-term job opportunities for the grasscutters. Kumbuyah said while there is still room for further improvement, the onboarding of Elite Agro team has gone a long way in improving grounds tidiness and keeping the grass at some acceptable level.
