Again, the O.B. Lulu-Briggs Foundation has distributed relief items worth millions to Elem-Sangama community in Akuku-Toru local government area of Rivers State which was devastated by flood during the last rains.
Elem-Sangama, one of the islands in the Kalabari Kingdom, was cut-off by the recent 2022 floods, which wreaked havoc among its inhabitants.
The relief items included food, toiletries, medication, treated mosquito nets and wrappers.
The foundation’s medical team also attended to people with health challenges.
The chairman of the foundation, Dr Seinye O.B. Lulu-Briggs, said the intervention after the earlier one in Akinima, Ahoada West local government area in November was fulfilling her promise to stand by Nigerians affected by the catastrophe.
She said, “After the Akinima event, I stated that the O.B. Lulu-Briggs remains committed to caring for the under-served through interventions that have an immediate impact; we will provide humanitarian relief to Nigerians when disasters like the flood emergency occur. We are in Elem-Sangama to fulfil that promise and we shall do more with the right strategic partnerships and collaborations.”
Lulu-Briggs added that the plight of families rebuilding from the disruptions caused by the floods on the remote island touched her.
“Our intervention coincides with the Christmas season. Christmas is a season of giving by God. We recall that He gave his only begotten Son to bring us peace and joy. We are doing as instructed by God by sharing what we have with our brothers and sisters in Elem-Sangama. We are His hands and legs. It is our mandate to ensure that no natural occurrences stop anyone from experiencing the wonderful spiritual gift that brings us eternal life. And I call on other individuals and organisations which can afford it, to support underprivileged Nigerians and make them happy this Christmas,” she said.
The Amayanabo, HRH Tamunobere Onisah thanked the foundation for its intervention and Dr. Seinye O. B. Lulu-Briggs for her kind gesture.
He said, “The people are very happy and thankful for this assistance. It is very timely. We will write her a letter of gratitude confirming that we received the consignment she graciously sent. I have also told my people that we must nurture this relationship between the O.B. Lulu-Briggs Foundation and us into the future. Nothing must come between us.”
