The World Bank has debarred Ghanaian waste management company, Zoomlion, for two years after the company was found of misconduct in implementing the Bank-funded project in Liberia.

The company’s debarment is effective September 24, 2013, officials say, meaning it will not qualify for any contract financed by the World Bank Group which also includes the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA).

Zoomlion has subsequently acknowledged the misconduct, added the World Bank.
