Acting Deputy Director, Army Public Relations, Lt. Col Olabisi Ayeni made this known on Monday in a statement.

He said, “The troops of 65 Battalion NA deployed at the Officers’ Mess, who sighted Mrs Spark quickly used their military riverine skills and ingenuity to rescue her.

“After stabilization, the family was contacted and she was handed over to her husband, one Mr Spark Oghene Ovie residing at Awoyaya Lagos.

“The General Officer Commanding (GOC) 81 Division NA, Major General Muhammed Takuti Usman has commended the soldiers for being observant, and for their ingenuity, courage, and gallantry.

“He assured residents of the NA’s commitment to protect them and their properties even during emergencies.”
