De Boeck, who disclosed this during the foundation laying ceremony for the state-of-the-art conference hall at the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA), also reiterated its commitment to provide necessary assistance to the humanitarian crises in the state.

In an address, the Benue State governor, Hyacinth Alia  explained that the construction of the hall will serve as a pivotal hub for humanitarian affairs and as well provide a conducive environment for strategic discussions, capacity-building and emergency response coordination.

According to him, the conference hall will be a space where ideas will be exchanged, partnerships will be forged, and solutions will be provided in humanitarian ways.

He said, “It is with great pleasure and a profound sense of responsibility that  I lay the foundation for a state-of-the-art conference hall for Benue State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA). This hall will not merely be a structure; it will be a symbol of our collective commitment to the coordination and management of humanitarian response efforts in our beloved state.
