Petrosol Platinum Energy PLC has undertaken a clean-up exercise at the Wa Municipal Hospital in Ghana as part of its annual Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative. The exercise, which took place on September 27, 2026, involved staff and volunteers cutting down overgrown weeds, desilting choked drains, and clearing bushy areas that had become breeding grounds for snakes and rodents. The hospital authorities had long appealed for support due to the hospital's large compound and limited number of casual workers.
The clean-up exercise is only the first phase of Petrosol's intervention at the Wa Municipal Hospital. The company plans to donate medical equipment to the hospital on September 28, 2026, to support healthcare services. According to Philip Buama Asampong, Head of Marketing at Petrosol Platinum Energy PLC, the company has a responsibility to give back to the communities in which it operates, particularly in northern Ghana where 41 percent of its 109 service stations are located.
Petrosol's CSR initiative, themed "Energizing Dreams," aims to support the community's health needs. Asampong stated that the company wants to energize the dreams of the community it does business with, emphasizing that health is a core need of every human being. The company's efforts at the Wa Municipal Hospital are part of its commitment to supporting communities where it operates.
The Medical Superintendent of the Wa Municipal Hospital, Dr. Bukari Zakari, expressed gratitude for Petrosol's intervention, describing it as heartwarming. He revealed that the hospital had recently appealed for support on radio and was pleased that Petrosol had presented itself to provide the donation without being prompted. Dr. Zakari emphasized that a healthy environment is essential for a healthy human being and that the donation will go a long way in improving service delivery.
The Wa Municipal Hospital has been facing challenges due to its deteriorating state, with reports of snakes entering some wards and administrative offices. The hospital's large compound and limited casual workers had contributed to the problem, with weeds taking over parts of the facility. Petrosol's clean-up exercise and donation of medical equipment are expected to significantly improve the hospital's environment and services.
Petrosol Platinum Energy PLC has a history of supporting communities where it operates. The company's CEO, Michael Bozumbil, has previously highlighted the company's commitment to building a sustainable brand. Petrosol's efforts at the Wa Municipal Hospital are part of its broader CSR initiative, which aims to make a positive impact on the communities it serves.
The donation of medical equipment to the Wa Municipal Hospital is expected to enhance healthcare services in the area. Petrosol's "Energizing Dreams" CSR initiative is focused on supporting the community's health needs, and the company's efforts at the hospital are a testament to its commitment to giving back to the community. The company's actions have been welcomed by hospital authorities and the local community.
