Tullow Ghana Limited, the lead operator of Ghana’s Jubilee and TEN Oil Fields, has donated 4,000 bags of cement to the Appiatse Disaster Relief Committee to support the reconstruction of the mining community near Bogoso in the Western Region of Ghana.
The donation follows an explosion in the Appiatse Township in January 2022, leading to injuries, loss of lives and infrastructure.
The reconstruction project began on the 14th of September 2022 and would see the development of accommodation and critical community-wide infrastructures such as a health centre, market and other community spaces for the people.
Receiving the items on behalf of Appiatse, the Municipal Chief Executive for Prestea-Bogoso Municipality, Dr Isaac Dasmani lauded Tullow Ghana for the gesture and acknowledged that Tullow’s presentation was the largest in terms of building materials the committee had received.
Dr. Dasmani was very impressed that Tullow had decided to assist Appiatse, although its operations do not cover the area.
As a socially responsible organisation, Tullow Ghana was moved with compassion for the people of Appiatse following the disaster.
In line with its commitment to supporting the development of its host nations, Tullow Ghana donated to help the Appiatse Disaster Relief Committee in its efforts at rebuilding the Appiatse township.
