Shell Companies in Nigeria have been named the best in sustainable stakeholder engagement and promotion of human rights in the annual Social Enterprise Report and Awards (SERAs). Shell also emerged the first runner-up in the overall SERAs CSR awards for the most responsible Nigerian company, while it was nominated for its sterling performance in five other categories – Infrastructure; Sustainability Report; Supply Chain; Partnership for Development; and Income and Wealth Generation at award programme held on Saturday in Lagos. “The Global Memorandum of Understanding (GMoU) initiative, among others, stood Shell companies out in stakeholder engagement, while its human rights training programme cannot go unrecognised,” the award organisers said. The organisers recognised the efforts of the Country Chair of Shell Companies in Nigeria and Managing Director, Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC,), Mutiu Sunmonu and named him Sustainability Champion. “We are grateful for the recognition of our efforts which began since we set foot in the Niger Delta in the 1950s,” Sunmonu said when he received the awards. “The awards are a challenge for me and my colleagues in Shell and we shall remain in the forefront of converting Nigeria’s oil and gas resources to more jobs and opportunities for Nigerians.” SERAs aim to recognise corporate bodies who invest in society through CSR progammes. Shell Companies in Nigeria have won the award in six different categories in the last eight years ago. posted on November 09, 2014 at 08:33PM Send an email to Joseph T.
