This initiative is part of the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme, named the Lafarge Africa Elderly Care Programme.

The beneficiaries, drawn from 14 host communities around the cement plant in Ewekoro, received the aid to enhance their quality of life.

Speaking about the initiative, the group managing director/CEO of Lafarge Africa, Lolu Alade-Akinyemi, emphasised the company’s commitment to supporting retirees and vulnerable elderly individuals.

Represented by the head of Sustainability and Corporate Brand, Titilope Oguntuga stated, “the Lafarge Elderly Care Programme demonstrates our unwavering dedication to improving the well-being and dignity of the aged members in our host communities. Our core focus areas include food provision, medical support, and economic empowerment.”

He added, “In Nigeria, elderly individuals face numerous challenges, including changes in family dynamics, increased medical needs, economic pressures, and reduced functional independence. Our program is a promise to provide the necessary care and support for those aged 50 and above, ensuring they lead fulfilling lives.”

The commissioner for local government and chieftaincy affairs, Ganiu Hamzat, urged members of the host communities to maintain peaceful relations with Lafarge Africa to foster ongoing development.

“No meaningful development can take place in an atmosphere of violence. Had there been a crisis in Ewekoro community, this kind of programme would not take place,” he noted.

In his remarks, the Onipapa of Papalanto, Oba Abdulrasaq Olayiwola, acknowledged the support of Lafarge Africa in making lives more meaningful for residents of the host communities, calling for community cooperation to ensure continued development.

On behalf of the beneficiaries, Dotun Oderinde, a member of the Community Relations Committee of Lafarge Africa, commended the company for its gesture and called on others to emulate them.

He assured Lafarge Africa of the continued support of members of the host communities, saying the company has laid a solid foundation for a mutually beneficial relationship.
