The Management of Bea Mountain Mining Corporation has officially launched the 2024 Christmas cleaning up initiative in Kinjor, and several of its host communities in Grand Cape Mount County.
The cleaning up initiative which kicked off on December 5, 2024, is intended to empower over two hundred young people from BMMC’s host communities including Kinjor, Marvoh, Downstream Community, Weajue, Ndablama.
This according to the Company, will also serve as a livelihood, as it helps youths within the communities, especially those without jobs to earn some money to boost their lives and families.
According to the Senior Management of BMMC, it decided to support the cleaning up campaign as a means of giving the communities a good facelift for the Christmas and New Year celebrations.
During the launch of the program, BMMC through its Community Relations Superintendent Isaac Z.K Sasraku presented sanitation materials to the youths of Kinjor, Marvoh, Downstream Community, Weajue, Ndablama. The sanitation materials include, shovels, wheelbarrows, cutlasses, rakes and reflective vests among others.
“On behalf of Bea Mountain Mining Corporation, we present to you these cleaning materials. This is in addition to what BMMC has been doing helping you to clean your communities. Last week there was a cleaning initiative around the new borehole, and today we are doing this, it is for fifteen days for us to keep the communities clean and also for us to augment the livelihood of our unskilled colleagues, most of whom are women” Mr. Sasraku stated.
He concluded by saying “So this is a boost for us for the Christmas, and I want to say thank you very much Mr. RAP Chairman and the leadership of Kinjor and the young people for your cooperation and for helping to keep the environment clean.
Speaking on behalf of the young people, the Youth Chairman of Kinjor Winston Korsor and RAP Chairman Lassana K. Sambola thanked the Management of BMMC for the cleaning up initiative.
“We want to say a very big thank you to Bea Mountain for this initiative. BMMC has been very supportive of our sanitation program since 2020, every December, every July 26, but now we are encouraging the Company to make this program regular, at least every month” the Youth Chairman recommended.
Meanwhile, the youths of Weajue and Ndablama Project Sites have commended the Management of Bea Mountain for the cleaning up initiative. They stated that the program will greatly reduce financial burden on their respective families during the festive season.
