The Lagos state chapter of the Madonna University Alumni Association MUAALAG ended the year on a high as it recognized the highway managers of the Lagos State Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) before hosting its members to an evening of fun, glitz and glamour.

Speaking about the LAWMA exercise which saw the body give out food stuff commodities to 200 highway managers, President of the association Ogho Emore stated that the initiative was born out of the desire to recognize the people who impact in the lives of Lagosians directly but are often unappreciated. He said “The highway managers are a key part of our community. As the days unfold, environmental sustainability is becoming more important for healthy living amongst the populace. We are doing our own bit to appreciate these people who do their best to ensure the streets remain clean but sadly aren’t accorded the recognition the enormity of their work demands.” The exercise saw members of MUAALAG who were divided into clusters based on regions (Island, Ikeja,Festac,Yaba/Surulere), give out food items to 200 of the sweepers spread across the locations.

He continued by indicating that the association was in discussions with various corporate entities on how to increase the reach of the goodwill gesture in the coming year in addition to other programs aimed at improving their welfare. (See Photos from the ‘feed the Highway Managers Initiative)
