The Controller
General of Federal Fire Service, Engr Anebi Garba Joseph has lauded the
gestures of Big Church Foundation after the donation of a Fire
Emergency Ambulance. The presentation of the materials was done by
president of the foundation, Dr. Olakunle Churchill Oladunni to the
Comptroller General of the Federal Fire Service.
Anebi said the
gesture by the foundation remains historic since the service was
established in 1901 by the British colonial regime as a unit within the
Lagos Police Service Department to prevent and combat fire outbreaks in
the Government Reserved Areas of Lagos Colony. The service comptroller
found the gesture profound and reiterated that, “Our men shall
continue to proceed to zones others can’t dare to rescue human lives and
properties.“This demonstration of love for humanity and our job by
Churchill and the Big Church Foundation has made him a friend of the
house from today. “Technically, he is the first person from the
inception of this service to identify with us, either as a person or as
an organisation.
Since last year, God has shone his countenance on the service and it now works like other agencies.“We’re
grateful because each time the fire fighters go out to put out fire,
they’d first of all rescue those who have inhaled smokes or poisonous
gases would need to be brought out safely and taken to the hospital. But
the service has been handicapped.”
Chairman of the Big Church Foundation, Churchill Oladunni in his speech said, “We’re
making this contribution to make the country safer than it is and we
recognise the humanitarian service of the fire fighters since 1901.
After this donation we’ve made today, we shall be looking into other
areas of prevention where we can partner with the service for the safety
of all and sundry...we are also donating 1,000 fire extinguishers and
fire blanket respectively to aid the fire service in their rescue
operations, which also be important for homes and offices"
The
presentation of the materials was done by president of the foundation,
Dr. Olakunle Churchill Oladunni to the Comptroller General of the
Federal Fire Service on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 at the Federal Fire
Service centre, Area 10, Abuja.\n\nThe event drew attendance from fire
fighters, top celebrities from the movie and music industry that
include Ayo Makun (AY), Waje, Mike Ezunronye, TBoss, Victoria Kimani,
Emma Nyra, Mamuze Twins, Charles Awurum, Praiz, Dennis Dooshima among a
