The Nigerian Navy Secondary School, Akpabuyo, Calabar has been opened.
It was built by LNG Limited (NLNG) as part of the company’s contribution to the development of education.
The 320-capacity boys hostel, taken over by NLNG for completion last year at the cost of N45 million, was inaugurated by the Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas.
Vice Admiral Ibas said: ‘’Our officers and the students thank NLNG for this kind gesture. I want to acknowledge that NLNG has been a great partner to the Navy in ensuring the provision of security in the maritime sector. This gesture further strengthens that partnership because there is no way the Navy and, indeed, the Federal Government can provide these infrastructure. Partners that care and think about Nigeria, especially our children, such as NLNG, deserve our commendation. The Navy will continue to appreciate NLNG’s contributions towards capacity building and assures you that this building will be utilised to create positive impact on students of this school.’’
The General Manager, External Relations at NLNG, Kudo Eresia-Eke, said NLNG through this and other corporate social responsibility CSR) initiatives across the country has demonstrated its commitment to the advancement of education, which is the bedrock of any sustainable development in the society.
