It takes a healthy community to produce sound individuals that contribute to its positive development, which is only some of the reasons Godrej Nigeria organized a community clean-up exercise as part of their corporate social responsibility and to mark World Malaria Day 2021.

Staff and members of Godrej Nig, makers of Good Knight insecticide joined in the exercise because they believe that the family is precious and every moment spent together needs to be celebrated and preserved. Also, social media influencers including Waje, Aproko Doctor among others joined in lending their voices to the cause.

The Good Knight Nigeria Team is poised to continue efforts in its counter-malaria quest while working hand in hand with the Ministry of Health and other relevant entities to show that zero malaria is achievable in Nigeria.
