Jospong supports 10 university students
Sewerage Systems Ghana Limited (SSGL), a subsidiary company of the
Jospong Group, has paid the tuition fees of 10 university students from
James Town in Accra.
The gesture was part of the Company’s community outreach programme under its Corporate Social Responsibility.
James Town is a fishing community where the company has established
its biggest facility called the Lavender Hill and Mudor Faecal Treatment
Plant. The facility has the capacity to treat about 80 per cent of
liquid waste generated in Accra.

The Managing Director of SSGL, Mr. Haidar Said, made the
announcement at the company’s annual thanksgiving ceremony held last
Friday.
The event, which brought together all the staff and management of
the company, was to thank God for his goodness to the company. Held at
the Mckeown Assembly of the Church of Pentecost at Korle Gonno, the
three-hour programme was on the theme “Give thanks to God for He is
good”.
Mr. Said expressed the company’s gratitude to the people of James
Town for their various contribution since the Lavender Hill and Mudor
Faecal Treatment Plant began operation.
“Whiles we are thanking God for his blessings, we also want to show
appreciation to the people of James Town for their assistance to the
SSGL,” he said.
Mr. Said noted apart from the payment of the tuition fees of the
students, the company had done a lot for the community since it started
operating in the area.

the Business Development and Communications Manager of SSGL, Ms. Lola

youth from James Town.

Ms. Ashitey said the company intended to further engage more of the youth in various projects that would soon be rolled out.
That, she said, was a way to assist the youth to improve their
well-being, adding that “once they are engaged, they will have a means
of income”, Ms. Ashitey added
