LEADING ENGI NEERING constructi­on company, Julius Berger Nigeria Plc, has continued to sustain and expand its covid-19 palliative­s donations in the country.

The company had made series of important corporate social responsibi­lity contributi­ons including food supplies, personal protective equipment, much needed clinical beds and mattress donations as well as ambulance vehicle, amongst others to Local Councils, communitie­s, hospitals; and government-nominated covid-19 isolation centres across the country since the corona virus pandemic began.

Julius Berger, in fulfilment of the pledge by Lars Richter, the company’s managing director, to continue to assist the government and people of Nigeria to the best of its ability in the fight to contain the spread and impact of covid-19, donated large quantities of needed beds to more health care facilities.

The Julius Berger hospital palliative­s donation team from the Abuja-Kano Road project, led by Yusuf Ibrahim, again donated more hospital beds to the Umar Musa Yar’Dua Memorial Hospital, Wuse, Niger State. The Julius Berger team was received by Richard A. Agba, head of clinicals. He on behalf of the hospital thanked Julius Berger for its goodwill and proactive corporate social responsibi­lity gesture.

The Julius Berger team also visited and donated more hospital beds to the Primary Health Care Centre at Jere, Kargako Local Government Area in Kaduna State, where Abdullahi Daniya, the Wazirin (District head) of Jere, was on hand to receive the Julius Berger Hospital Palliative­s Donations Team. The Wazirin of Jere also thanked Julius Berger for the kind gesture which he said is a reflection of the sensitivit­y of the company to the real needs of the community’s Health Care Centre at this time.
