Varney Lake and his team for their sacrificial work, and prayed for God\u2019s blessings upon them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith all the hardship they are going through, they are doing their duty beyond their call of duty. So I commend them wholeheartedly,\u201d said Mr. Jeety.<\/p>\n<p>Following the feeding exercise at the prison facilities, Mr. Jeety concluded the exercise on Center Street and fed hundreds of disadvantaged folks.<\/p>\n<p>In response, Col. Varney Lake said Mr. Jeety is being considered a major feeding partner for the prison system.<\/p>\n<p>Col. Lake said Mr. Jeety has created a feeding schedule for himself to feed inmates, noting that sometimes he does not have to be called to intervene.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd it is not just unique to the Monrovia Central Prison. He has extended his gesture beyond. So, we say thank you, Mr. Jeety and your team and the Indian Community at large because it has already extended its connection,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Col. Lake said he was overwhelmed to receive the gesture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
