A non-governmental organization (NGO), Caleb Danladi Foundation (CDF), has enrolled 200 beneficiaries into the Kaduna State Contributory Health Insurance Scheme.
The foundation said beneficiaries who were mostly less privileged women and children were selected across the four chiefdoms of Jaba, Kagoma, Barde, and Bajju in Southern part of Kaduna State.
At the enrolment of the 200 women and children for free health insurance by Caleb Danladi Foundation held in Kwoi, Jaba local government area, the director-general Kaduna State Contributory Health Management Agency (KADCHMA), Alhaji Abubakar Hassan, commended the group for addressing healthcare disparities.
KADCHMA boss who was represented by the director of administration and finance, Suleiman Mustapha said the NGO’s commitment to societal welfare and its role in advancing the state’s healthcare agenda should be emulated by other organisations.
The founder of Caleb Danladi Foundation, Caleb Danladi Bako said as someone who grew up in the village he was moved to assist the downtrodden by enrolling them into the health insurance scheme to have access to free medical care and reduce maternal mortality.
In their separate remarks during the visit of the foundation officials to their palaces, Kpok Ham, Mallam Danladi Gyet Maude and Kpop Gwong, His Highness, Col. Paul Zakkah Wyoms (Rtd) while thanking the NGO said the gesture would give the beneficiaries sense of belonging.
