Council Chair Hopeful Sponsors Healthcare Outreach

In a bid to ensure that the masses at the grassroots have access to free quality healthcare services, especially the poor, over five hundred people of Ajeromi-Ifelodun have benefited from a free medical outreach fully sponsored by Prince Oyebowale Wahab Oluwa.

The free medical outreach, according to Prince Oluwa, an aspirant in Ajeromi/Ifelodun local government area ahead of the Local Government Election in the state, is to allow the masses, especially the people of Ajeromi-Ifelodun, to have quality medical attention, diagnosis, and treatment for free.

A statement by his media office said the free medical outreach also included the presentation of walking aids such as crutches and wheelchairs, to mention a few.

Declaring the Free Medical Outreach open, His Royal Majesty Oba Moroof Atanda Amodu Tijani Oluwa, The Olu of Iwa and Apapa Kingdom, encouraged the masses to ensure they approach healthcare facilities whenever they have health issues rather than resorting to self-treatment.

Oluwa stressed that approaching a quality healthcare system, whether at the primary, secondary, or tertiary level, is far better than approaching quacks who are not health practitioners.

He emphasised the need for good health hygiene and a clean environment as a means to stay safe.

Prince Oyebowale Wahab Oluwa (PWO), on his part, said all he is doing is to complement the government’s effort.

He added that the free medical outreach targeted the vulnerable members of the community, particularly men, women, children, and the aged who cannot afford the cost of medical attention.

Oyebowale said touching lives gives him joy, adding that he is happy putting smiles on the faces of others.

Oluwa commended Oyebowale’s initiative to take quality health service delivery to the masses for free.

Part of the services given for free includes Free Medical Check, Free distribution of drugs after diagnosis, free sugar tests, among others.
