The newly completed and fully furnished facility comprises five units of three-bedroom duplexes, designed to serve as official residences for the branch’s senior officers.
In a statement signed by Head of Media & Publicity Committee of the Navy 69th Anniversary, Commander Patricia Ochei, the project marks a significant milestone in addressing the welfare needs of naval personnel.
In his remarks during the commissioning ceremony, the CNS commended the Chief of Accounts and Budget for the successful execution of the project.
He described the edifice as a testament to the Navy’s commitment to improving personnel welfare and living standards.
He further emphasized the importance of such initiatives in fostering a productive and motivated workforce.
Vice Admiral Ogalla urged the officers to redouble their efforts and maintain a conducive and professional environment.
He reminded them that “to whom much is given, much is expected,” encouraging them to treat the accommodation as their own, rather than merely government property.
The CNS officially handed over the impressive facility to the Chief of Accounts and Budget, expressing confidence that the officers would put it to good use.
