Important healthy benefit of Onions

As London Ambulance Service reports ‘one of busiest days ever – COVID hospital admissions near first wave peak


Samsung
Heavy Industries Nigeria (SHIN) Limited has handed over 5,000 COVID-19 research
kits to the Nigerian government in accordance with the agreement to donate and help
fight the pandemic in Nigeria. The donation was part of the efforts of the
Korean company to help Nigeria benefit from the experience of South Korea in
the global virus war.
In
a brief ceremony recently held in Abuja with officials from the Embassy of the
Republic of Korea, the representative of SHIN said that the move was part of
the plan of the shipyard giant to return to its host countries around the
world. He said the equipment and other contributions from individuals and
corporate bodies, will compliment Nigerian government’s efforts to tackle the
pandemic.
The
representative noted that the intervention of SHIN in the area of donation of
test kits will also help Nigeria to benefit from the Korean experience in
suppressing the virus.
He
recalled that the World Health Organisation (WHO)’s Director General, Dr.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, had given special commendation to South Korea for
its innovative approach in tackling the virus, saying that WHO also described
his country as a global model in the war against the COVID-19.
Citing
a report by WHO, the SHIN representative disclosed that when South Korea was
faced with surging community transmission, it refused to surrender to the
pandemic but rather developed innovative testing strategies, rationed the use
of masks, conducted exhaustive contact tracing and testing, and isolated
suspected cases.
According
to him, these efforts led to declining infections in South Korea.
The
representative recalled that South Korea has received several requests for the
test kits from many countries of the world.
He
disclosed that, given the strong demand for kits from various parts around the
world and the difficulties around obtaining and rationing them, SHIN was able
to procure 5,000 kits for the Nigerian government because the organization
cares for Nigerians and also gives the country top priority in its global
market. In addition to this popularity, there are also other Korean businesses
working in Nigeria.
The
representative also added that SHIN felt it is part of its Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR) to help the Nigerian government to tackle and mitigate the
impact of the global pandemic.
Commenting
on the donation, the Korean Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Lee In Tae, said:
“It is indeed a great pleasure to see that a Korean company such as SHIN
has taken the initiative to donate COVID-19 test kits, which further shows that
the Korean Government and Korean businesses working in Nigeria are genuinely
worried about Nigeria and feel responsible for assisting and encouraging the
federal government to do so. The Republic of Korea will also work closely with
the Nigerian government to see any way we can support Nigeria to deal with the
situation”.
SHIN
has consistently given back to Nigerians over the years as part of its
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). For instance, the company has been
sponsoring the eye surgeries of Nigerians on a yearly basis.
Since
2015, SHIN has worked with Vision Care, an organisation under WHO, in the
yearly Eye Camp to give free cataract surgeries to Nigerians who cannot afford
the treatment.
In
2019, it sponsored the eye surgeries of at least 115 Nigerian patients and 224
outward patients as part of its CSR in Nigeria. In the previous Eye surgeries
in 2018, 102 patients, who were at the risk of blindness, recovered their
eyesight.
Since
it started the program, SHIN has sponsored the eye surgeries of 572 Nigerian
patients, 1,593 outward patients and has also donated glasses to 99 patients.
The
company has provided electrical appliances, clothes and other relief supplies
to the victims of herdsmen and terrorist attacks by Boko Haram in Jos, Plateau
Province. The Korean missionary group also established a school in Jos for
villagers in Rhizha, where four missionaries taught about 560 children and also
provided therapy to victims, mainly women, who endured trauma from the
insurgent attacks of Boko Haram.
