COVID-19: Julius Berger’s Palliatives Arrives Kaduna, Kano States

BY GRACE ANYANWU, ABUJA – In its consistent, vigorous and well-coordinated efforts in supporting the Nigerian Government and people in the fight to contain the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic, Julius Berger Nigeria Plc has extended its citizen-centred palliatives, christened “Food for our Communities Campaign”, to Kaduna and Kano States.

The Julius Berger food distribution team to Kaduna and Kano States was led by the company’s Project Coordinator for the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano Road (AKR) Road construction and rehabilitation project, Mr Ibrahim Yusuf.

The food palliative distribution campaign in Kaduna and Kano States commenced at section 2 of the project route in Kaduna.

The construction giant team then proceeded with the food donations to the District head of Zaria also in Kaduna State.

Yusuf and his team later took the Julius Berger “Food for our Communities Campaign” to the Palaces of the District heads of Bebeji and Kura in Kano State.

The company in its continuation  to implementing its strong commitment to the fight to roll back Covid-19 from the country’s communities, last week promised to extend its food palliative donations to other States, including Kaduna and Kano communities.

It has also implemented its “Food for our Communities Campaign” in Lagos, and other communities around the second Niger Bridge under construction in Anambra and Delta States.

Items for the relief packages, which include bags of rice and various cooking supplies are purchased from local markets in a bid to provide succour to citizens while also backing local traders.

Managing Director of Julius Berger Plc, Dr Lars Richter has assured that the; “Food for our Communities Campaign” and other necessary palliative operations continues until the monster of Covid-19 is defeated and dislodged out of our country and communities”.
