AfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> GENERAL Petroleum Company on Thursday in Dar es Salaam donated various coronavirus protective items to Temeke Municipality in efforts to fight spread of the disease in the area.<\/p>\n

Leading the donation in their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), the company\u2019s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Hayat Khan said the spirit to assist was part of the mission\u2019s dictum of \u201cTogether we conquer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Citing the donations as bottles of sanitizers to 142 streets in the Municipality, masks and unspecified number of gloves, he added that the assistance would continue in efforts to help the government to tame the disease in the public and institutions, including Hospitals, which treat quarantined people.<\/p>\n

Mr Khan noted that the plough back was part of the company\u2019s expressing gratitude to the community, where they do business of manufacturing and marketing of lubricant products.<\/p>\n

Receiving the items for his Municipality, Mayor Abdallah Chaurembo said they would be distributed to Temeke Regional Hospital, Mbagala Hospital, Wards and Streets with an appeal that they should be strictly used and not misused or sold.<\/p>\n

\u201cMay I appeal to the Councillors also to make sure that the 200 bottles of sanitizers, 600 pieces of masks and gloves issued to them are rightly take to the grassroots, where there may be a dire need,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

While thanking the company for the donation, the Mayor said the investor interest to plough back in the community in their CSR was a mature way of showing solidarity with the government in times of difficulties.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe government alone can not do it, but it is good we are surrounded by companies like General Petroleum in the Municipality showing support and I understand, you are preparing to also provide\u00a0 Iftar, we wish you all the best,\u201d said Mr Chaurembo.<\/p>\n

On his part, Temeke Municipal Medical Officer\u00a0 Dr Gwamaka Mwabulambo said, despite them receiving the assistance, still appealed to the residents to keep off crowded places, where necessary.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople should always maintain a one metre social distance, frequently wash their hands with soap or sanitize hands, but above all keep off unnecessary crowded places,\u201d added the medic.<\/p>\n
