The senator  representing Anambra North senatorial zone Sen. Princess Stella Oduah has encouraged  multi-nationals and other companies to step up their participation in corporate social responsibility.

This call was contained in a motion moved on the floor of the Senate, this motion aims to address the harm that some of companies inflict in their host communities such as they pollution of the air and farmlands. Sometimes there are no measures to address the hazard despite huge revenue generated to the detriment of the host communities. This motion will also help to foster peaceful co-existence between the host communities and the companies.

The Distinguished  Senator believes some Nigeria-based multinational  companies  are not contributing effectively  to the growth and development  of their host communities despite the huge environmental hazards that their activities pose. This is unacceptable as some of these multinationals  engage in meaningful  corporate social  reponsibilities in other countries  where they do they business. This uncharitable act has resulted in a series of hostilities  between host communities  and staffs of these multinationals. Sen. Oduah believes the multinationals must wake up and rise up to their reponsibilities  to their Host communities.

This motion in its peculiar manner will avert possible hostility  in host communities  of these multinationals Anambra North  communities,  because it is no longer news that the zone is oil rich and also adorned with other natural  resources  awaiting  exploration.  This will not only  bring  developmental strides in the zone but will ensure sustained  peace between  host communities  and the multinational  hopeful.

The distinguished senator  has shown her self as seasoned legislator, capable of making relevant laws which will pivot her zone to greater heights. Nigeria needs more of  the soft but elegant law maker if we are to attain her goals.
