"Today is one of our lined up programmes, in which we are  presenting fifty-five (55) NECO-SSCE Forms to celected brilliant students across Ikorodu Division. You will recall that the State Government pays for the May/June West Africa Examination (WAEC) for students in Lagos State. We therefore took this upon ourselves to support the Government and equally help some brilliant students which parents could not afford to obtain the  NECO-SSCE.

"This is our little way in stretching our helping hands to the society. It has been tedious in achieving this lofty goal but thanks to the wonderful sponsors. For the beneficiaries, I want you to make good use of this opportunity by coming out in flying colours as this may determine what you will become in life," Pelumi said.

He further explained that the Tortuga Frigate is aimed at promoting the Socio-Economic and Intellectual wellbeing Of Its members through referrals, networking and mutual support, mentor youths and guide them to achieve their fullest potentials, and also to foster quality relationship across the boundaries of race, Ethnicity, Class, Religion and all other limiting factors that deter a progressive society, amongst others.
