Nigerian Gas Company (NGC) Limited, a subsidiary of the Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC), as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility, built, commissioned and handed over two fully furnished Basic Primary Health Care Centres to Umu-Eziogoli community in Ukwuani Local Government Area and Umuseti-Ogbe community in Ndokwa West Local Government Area of Delta State.

While handing over the edifices, the Managing Director of Nigeria Gas Company Limited, Engr. Seyi Omotowa, who was represented by the Executive Director, Support Services, Mrs Uche Ossai, said that the company is committed to developing a robust and sustainable relationship with its host communities.

According to the NGC MD, “The wellbeing of our host communities is paramount in our Corporate Social Responsibility thrust, and this is simply why we are here today. Therefore,  we present to you these Basic Health Centres as a token of our contribution to the development of both communities which we cherish Dearly as one of our peace-loving communities.

“On our part as a company, we shall continue to solicit your co-operation and assistance in the maintenance of peace in order to support our business growth aspirations for the benefit of our people in these communities and Nigerians generally.

“Let me reiterate,  that NGC will always encourage and appreciate communities that promote peace,  dialogue and understanding in the resolution of any issue. This, indeed,  is the hallmark of our community relations engagement process.  We would appreciate direct contact with NGC Management through our Public Affairs Department on any community issues and not through a third party. Problems are better solved where there is constant communication between entities with vested interest, for the mutual benefit of all.

“Finally, let me appeal to you as communities, that this Health Centre is yours, we, therefore, urge you to safeguard it by putting in place adequate security measures to protect it.”

Those who responded for both communities were: Mr Ogochukwu Nwose, Chairman Umu-Eziogoli community, Barr. Nelson Enumah, and Mr Kingsley Chukwutem Ndiom, Chairman CDC, Umuseti-Ogbe, Mr George Oliseh for Umu Odia/Achi family.
