Matsapha – As a build-up to the upcoming 2024 Earth Hour Campaign, Council in collaboration with several stakeholders from the town of Matsapha and the peri-urban area conducted a clean-up and tree-planting campaign. This campaign was implemented in two phases, the first one beginning at KaHlobile to Mobeni Estates. The second phase of the campaign began at Kwaluseni (University of Eswatini Gate) at Mahhala Shopping Complex.
The main of this initiative was to sensitize community members of the Kwaluseni Inkhundla on the importance of keeping our environment clean and emphasize the role played by trees in providing oxygen and improving the quality of air. The participants of this initiative were also sensitized about the objectives of the Earth Hour Campaign.
Speaking during the campaign, the Chief Executive Officer of Council, Lucky Sukati commended stakeholders for taking part in the initiative and reaffirmed Council’s commitment to keeping the town of Matsapha and the surrounding communities clean. Council would like to send a special message of appreciation to the Eswatini Housing Board, Eswatini Electricity Company, Viva Beverages, Uneswa FM, Lactalis Eswatini, IDM Eswatini, VOCTIM, Jesus Calls Worship Centre, Mondelez, Green Mamba Ladies Team and the entire community of Matsapha for making this initiative possible.
