Social intervention
Presenting the items, the Head of Administration and Human Resource of GOIL, Martin Olu-Davies, expressed the company’s sympathy to the community.

The Chief Executive of the Prestea-Huni Valley Municipal Assembly, Dr Joseph Dasmani, received the items in the company of the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) officials in the municipality, and expressed gratitude to GOIL for the donation, describing it as “big and timely”.
