The Minister of Local Government, Chieftaincy, and Religious Affairs (MLGCRA), Mr. Ahmed Ibrahim has hailed Zoomlion Ghana Limited for the unparalleled sanitation infrastructure so far in West Africa amid a strategic collaboration to tackle Ghana’s waste management crisis, particularly plastic.
The minister was peaking on Adom TV in Accra, when he underscored the indispensability of Zoomlion’s cutting-edge facilities, which position Ghana as a regional leader in sustainable waste solutions.
“The kind of sanitation infrastructure that Zoomlion has invested – both in municipal solid and liquid waste and robustness of the recycling waste management plants is so unparalleled,” he averred.
Mr. Ahmed also praised Zoomlion’s nationwide network of modern recycling plants, faecal waste management systems, and sewage-to-resource technologies, which convert waste into compost and charcoal.
These facilities, he noted, align with Ghana’s 2016 ban on ocean dumping of faecal waste, a policy enacted under former President John Dramani Mahama that halted hazardous coastal pollution.
“Before Zoomlion, faecal waste flowed freely into the sea that caused diseases such as cholera. Their infrastructure is now our lifeline,” he emphasized.
