SENATOR STELLA ODUAH'S MOTION ON CSR DISSECTED

Our indefatigabel Senator Stella Oduah sponsored a Motion on:

Need to encourage multi-nationals and other companies in participating in Corporate Social Responsibility CSR

The motion is to address the dangers companies pose in their host communities which they pollute their air, water, land, farmlands etc and care less to address the hazard even when they earn huge revenue to the detriment of their host communities. The motion will help to foster peaceful coexistence between the host communities and the companies and their staff. The companies are expected to address the dearth of social amenities in their host communities for peaceful relationship.

The motion will service the following objectives:

i.                    Compel corporate organizations to engage their host communities through CSR

ii.                  Compel corporate organizations to pay compensation to host communities for any environmental hazard their activities inflict on their communities

iii.                Compel Corporate organizations to engage the youths of the communities through employment, scholarship programs and other empowerment programs that will benefit the youths of the communities

iv.                Help to build cordial relationship between the host communities and the organisation.
