Waltersmith Petroman Nigeria Limited, one of the indigenous oil companies to build a modular refinery in Nigeria, is to build an industrial park in Ohaji/Egbema local government, its host community of Imo state.
Also in line with its corporate social responsibilities, Waltersmith has advanced plans to employ 47 youths of Ohaji/Egbema who had undergone six months technical skills acquisition programme which was organised by the company.
The project is being undertaken with support from the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA).
Chief Executive Officer of Waltersmith Petroman Company, Mr. Chikezie Nwosu, disclosed this at the closing ceremony of Waltersmith Technical Skills Acquisition Programme, 2021 for some graduates of Ohaji/Egbema local government area of Imo state.
Five of the 47 graduates who performed excellently were given special recognition by the management of the company.
Nwosu said the Industrial Park will attract petrochemical, pharmaceutical, research and other light manufacturing companies that feed off the hydrocarbon value chain.
He said, “The industrial park is being developed with the support of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization and United Nations Economic Commission for Africa as part of Nigeria’s country program with the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment.”
Special Assistant to Governor Hope Uzodimma on Oil and Gas Matters, Goodluck Opiah, who was obviously delayed by the fact that Waltersmith has proved to be a worthy partner in the development of its host community, said that he was happy that the youths did not only get knowledge but were also promised employment by the company.
