CWAY Gives Out Plastic Recycling Bins To Lagos Govt., Environmental Sustainability.
CWAY Water, a leading producer of top quality premium drinking water in Nigeria has its commitment to environmental sustainability by donating sets of giant plastic recycling bins to the Lagos State Government through the Lagos State Waste Management Agency (LAWMA).
The company said that thisdonation is in furtherance of its ongoing commitment to positively impact the environment while supporting the Lagos Recycle Initiative, a comprehensive programme aimed at promoting sustainable waste management practices in Afric’s largest metropolis.
The donation ceremony, recently at the Ijora head office of LAWMA in Lagos, marks another milestone in CWAY’s ongoing partnership with Lagos State in promoting environmental sustainability and responsible waste management.
Speaking at the event, the Assistant General Manager Sales, Mr. Abiodun Sulayman emphasized the company’s dedication to environmental stewardship ;At CWAY, we recognize that environmental sustainability is not just a corporate responsibility but a crucial investment in our shared future. These recycling bins represent our commitment to supporting Lagos State’s vision of a cleaner, more sustainable city. We know that in facilitating proper waste segregation and recycling, we are contributing to reducing environmental pollution and promoting a circular economy.
Mr. Olamide Ogundeji, Brand & Marketing Manager of CWAY Table Water, also highlighted the strategic importance of this initiative, saying, "This donation aligns perfectly with our brand’ core values of community engagement and environmental responsibility. We have consistently supported the Lagos Recycle Initiative over the years, and we are proud to continue this tradition. The recycling bins will serve as vital infrastructure in the state’s waste management ecosystem,enabling residents to participate actively in recycling efforts."
Receiving the donation on behalf of the Lagos state government, CEO/MD of Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA), Dr. Muyiwa Gbadegesin, said the donation of the waste bin was timely as it will help with the ongoing policy of sorting waste.
“These bins will aid us in collecting a large volume of recyclable plastics around us in Lagos state. It is very critical, as many of you are aware, that good waste management is containerization. We now have a policy in Lagos state that every Lagosian should have two bins in their houses: one for general waste and one for recyclable waste.
“Also for public spaces, we are introducing recycling waste bins as well and these bins donated today by CWAY will be very helpful for that, as members of the public will have somewhere to put their recycled bottles.”
