The items were received on behalf of the Jubilee House by the Chief Director of the Office of the President, Mr Henry Woode, in the presence of other officials of the presidency.

Mr Gerges said the prevention of COVID-19 was a collective effort, and as a socially responsible company, they deemed it necessary to complement the government's effort by donating the items which were required for regular and proper handwashing with soap under running water.

“Delta Agro Limited is also committed to this campaign because we see it as a shared responsibility. We believe our products will go a long way to contribute towards the improvement of hygiene and disinfecting of the environment as we all join hands to fight his coronavirus pandemic,” he said.

Mr Woode, on behalf of the presidency, expressed his appreciation for the donation as it demonstrated that the campaign was a joint effort which required the private sector to join hands with the government to fight the pandemic.
