Friday Mosque Minaret looking fresh after restoration project

Efforts by Stelco to clean the famous Friday mosque minaret have been finished with the minaret looking new and clean.

She stated that Stelco was awarded the project since it was a hundred percent Maldivian company and would be committed to the work as if it was a project of their own. She also praised the work of Stelco in cleaning the minaret.

Deputy Managing Director of Stelco Ali Azuwar stated reiterated the Minister’s statement by saying that Stelco’s project with the wells and minaret would be carried out with the view that it was a project of the company. He also thanked everyone involved in the project.
