Speaking at a community durbar, Regional Manager, Environment and Social Responsibility of NGGL, Derek Boateng, thanked the people of the area for their hospitality and added that the reciprocal gesture by Newmont was in keeping with its core value of demonstrating leadership in social responsibility.
The Chief of Beposo, Nana Kankam Boadu Apenteng, who received the cheque on behalf of the people thanked Newmont for the kind gesture and promised that the money will be used for its intended purpose.
