Navy distributes palliatives to 1000 Lagos households vanguardnews
Rear Admiral Murtala Bashir and Bale Yaya Ojora, presenting palliative to the oldest woman in the area.As part of activities to mark its 64th anniversary, the Nigerian Navy, has distributed palliatives and Personal Protection Equipment, PPE to at least 1000 families in Lagos, with a view to ameliorating their sufferings, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
He noted that the Navy decided to change from the regular medical outreaches because of the plights of residents in the face of the prevailing Corona Virus pandemic. “We see this as a responsibility for us to always reach out to communities. In this particular case, concerning the COVID-19 pandemic, we need to reach out to the vulnerable in the community, by way of supporting them”.
To ensure adherence to these guidelines, such as maintaining social distancing, washing and sanitising of the hands as well as wearing face masks, the CNS said Personal Protective Equipment, like face masks, were added to the palliatives. We will also go round compounds to give to indigent families. I won’t share it to this crowd because there will be disorder and violation of the Federal Government ‘s social distancing directive.
