The items are palliatives presented by the Navy to its host community occasioned by the COVID 19 Pandemic and the lockdown across States in the country. The items were received on behalf of the Community by the Akoko of Tongeji Island, His Royal Highness Oba Biolorunkosi Okiki Sule 1.
On his part, the elated Royal Highness thanked the Chief of the Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Ibok Ette Ibas for the gesture extended to the community at this trying period.
