Bahlodi Group Holdings has opened offices in Liberia with Steve Davis being the Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

Through Bahlodi's countless assistance to sports development, Mr. Davis was appointed International Coordinator for Youth and Sports of Liberia.

Mr. Aziz Kara happens to be the overall Chief Executive Officer of Bahlodi Group Holdings with corporate headquarters in South Africa.

Bahlodi has over the years shown interest in Liberia and was therefore gratified when the war ravaged country joined the company. He has helped Liberia in the area of sports by providing equipment through a memorandum of understanding signed by the President of the Liberia Football Association (LFA), Cllr. Sombo Izetta Wesley and Ditiro, a subsidiary of Bahlodi.

Bahlodi, at the same time, has through the CEO invited the captain of the female national, Florence Monbo, who needs a major medical attention.

It has been diagnosed that she has an enlarged heart and cannot play football anymore if it is not taken care off. Mr. Kara has taken full responsibility of all costs involved in making the female star to return to the pitch.

Bahlodi Group Holdings is a Multi-disciplined Corporation with branches in Ghana, DR Congo, UK, France, USA to name but a few.

The company has the vision to empower Liberians and therefore has interest in Sports, Communications, Housing, Mining, Healthcare, among others.

Meanwhile, Mr. Kara is aware that Liberia has been without electricity throughout the years of the civil war that plagued the country.

And also knowing that the economic activities in the nation cannot be effectively carried out without an efficient electricity source, the Bahlodi boss has instructed the Liberian branch to contribute six 60 KVA generators as an initial contribution towards the development package for Liberia.

The items were donated to the Ministry of Lands, Mines and Energy this week by the CEO of Bahldi Africa/Liberia, Steve Davis.

"Mr. Aziz knows that the Honourable Minister of Lands, Mines, Energy and Natural Resources, Dr. Eugene Shannoh is a man of integrity and his focus towards development is to be applauded," Mr. Davis commented during the presentation.

"He has also asked that we convey to the President of Liberia, Her Excellency Madam Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf, the Vice President, Members of the Legislature, Members of the Judiciary, the Cabinet Members and the Liberian people his heartfelt congratulations on the celebration of our country's 159th Independence Day," Mr. Davis added.
