‘Recognising the importance of this day, CPL expressed its commitment to sustainability and demonstrated its unwavering support for the workers at the forefront of environmental sanitation.
The event took place at LAWMA’s headquarters in Ijora, Lagos, Nigeria where the agency’s representatives were present to receive the uniforms.

The donation of sanitation uniforms not only addresses the immediate needs of the LAWMA workers but also encourages a sense of responsibility among the workforce.
By standing in solidarity with these individuals, CPL seeks to foster a culture of prioritising workers’ safety, environmental consciousness and inspire others within the industry to contribute positively to the preservation of our environment.
