The Nigerian Exchange Group has reinforced its commitment to environmental sustainability through a community cleanup exercise at Marina, Lagos, to commemorate World Environment Day 2026. The exercise was held in partnership with the Lagos State Waste Management Authority and the Recyclers Association of Nigeria.
The initiative brought together employee volunteers from NGX Group and representatives of both partner organisations to promote responsible waste management, environmental awareness, and community engagement. Beyond supporting cleaner public spaces and encouraging proper disposal practices, it provided staff with an opportunity to contribute directly to environmental causes, reflecting the group’s commitment to employee volunteering.
Consistent with NGX Group’s Corporate Social Responsibility framework, the cleanup forms part of the group’s environmental pillar, which promotes recycling, awareness, and sustainability-focused interventions.
