Following the recent environmental menace facing Lagos State, where we have lots of plastics littering the surrounding and blocking water ways, Ecobank has assume the responsibility of clearing the environment by paying the sum of Thirty Naira (30) to anyone who brings waste plastics to any of it branches.
It has become a norm that during rainy season, the drainage systems are blocked due to littering of plastics that form clog and block the water ways, preventing passage of waste water, littering the environment and causing increased insects e.g mosquitoes that causes malaria.
Eco-bank has come up with a better plan to reduce the adverse effect of this act by encouraging the masses to pick up any plastic found around their surroundings and go drop it at the stated Eco-bank branches where waste boxes has been provided. In return, #30 has been designated as compensation to anyone involve.
In a statement released by the bank, it states that It has started collecting bottles for cash.
The statement reads;
"We are kick-starting the campaign to clear 4 million bottles from our environment. So don't delay. Bring in your plastic bottles, starting today."

- 20, Allen Avenue, Ikeja, Lagos
- 52, Lagos road, Ikorodu town, Lagos
