The villagers, welcomed Turkish Ambassador Hasan Yavuz with flags of Turkey in their hands. During his speech at the village, Yavuz stated that "today we are delighted that we were able to keep our promise to you by delivering aid." Turkey is honored by your welcoming ceremony. Turkey has always been there for its African brothers, and will continue to always be there," he said.

Turkey is committed to fulfilling its duties towards Africa.
