The (Nigerian Society of Engineers) NSE Oluyole branch has commended the staff of Oyo State Fire Service operation units for the recent feat as regards Ayede Transmission Station fire outbreak containment.
This is as it gave special recognition to some of the staff with uncommon zeal to work without adequate PPE, most importantly the female.
Led by the branch chairman, Engineer Abdulrasaq Jimoh, the NSE paid a courtesy visit to the Oyo State Fire Service on Tuesday, February 11.
Responding, the Deputy Director, Oyo State Fire Service, Mr O. Adewuyi, thanked the NSE Oluyole branch for the august visit.
