BUSINESSMAN ANDERSON CHERRY has taken matters into his own hands, helping to clean a community affected badly by a pile-up of garbage.
“I cannot drive around and see this garbage piling up when I can get the resources to get it removed, but I cannot do it all over Barbados overnight,” he said in a statement released on Saturday evening.
Cherry, chief executive officer of Jose Y Jose Liquid and Solid Waste Management Inc. and who hails from the Bush Hall community in St Michael, said his team undertook a “massive” clean-up in the area yesterday morning, ridding it of as much garbage as they could so that the place could be as he remembered it, “spotless”.
“I am aware that the Sanitation Services Authority now has a task on its hands since for the past week or so they downed tools. So even now that they have started back, they will not be able to reach all areas. I think as a businessman that I can help,” he had explained. (GE/PR)
