The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) has presented relief materials and palliatives to communities in Soku clan of Akuku-Toru local government area of Rivers State.

The presentation was in fulfilment of the promise made by the interventionist agency to the communities during the outbreak of cholera in Soku, an oil-rich part of the state.

The palliative, which consists of edibles and other household items, included rice, beans, yams, noodles, beverages, water, nets, slippers and numerous other items, in very large quantities.

Handing over the items to the Soku Council of Chiefs, the Rivers State representative in the NDDC Board, Chief Tony Okocha, said the commission will continue to execute its mandate to prioritise the well-being and welfare of the people of Niger Delta.

Okocha stated that the NDDC decided to donate the relief materials to Soku communities, to cushion the aftermath effects of the cholera outbreak in the communities some months ago.

He commended the communities for their peaceful disposition and their support to the medical team, which the commission sent to the communities during the cholera outbreak, and admonished them to ensure that they share the palliative items equitably.
