]]> Retired Black Stars midfielder Derek Boateng believes hardwork and discipline are the reasons behind Michael Essien’s long and successful career.

At his peak, Essien was considered one of the best central midfielders in the world and spent his prime years playing for Chelsea where he won the Champions League before later moving on to play with Real Madrid and AC Milan.

These days he plies his trade in the Indonesian top flight with Persib Bandung and has already found the bag of the net 5 times in 27 appearances.

Boateng does not appear surprised that at age 34 Essien is still going strong in his club career.

“This guy is so professional you have no idea.

“When we all went to Europe most of the time he declined to come home with us for holidays.

“When you called to ask his whereabouts, he would answer that he was home watching Formula One.

“The guy was so determined and he was the only one during our U-17 days that kept his position right from the friendly through to the tournament,” he revealed.

]]> The Accra Compost and Recycling plant has resumed operations after closing for  two months.

The Plant was shut down due to government’s failure to release funds for its operations.

Government has for the past two years reneged on its financial commitment to the plant, forcing managers of the plant to shut down and lay off about hundred employees.

But speaking to Citi News, the Marketing Manager of the facility, Michael Padi Tuwor confirmed that government had settled about 40% of the debt, enabling the company to re-start operations.

“We started receiving waste from the Assemblies since yesterday,” he said.

He further expressed management’s commitment to redeploy employees who were laid off.

“We promised that this situation was not a permanent one and once we have received payment from government we will call them back.”

He was however quick to add that management will rather redeploy its employees gradually than “calling everyone at a goal.”
