ILE-IFE, OSUN STATE — Hon. Olufayo Oladapo Henry has organised a free medical outreach for more than 1,000 residents of Ile-Ife in Ife East Local Government Area of Osun State, providing essential healthcare services to members of the community.

The outreach, aimed at supporting residents with limited access to healthcare, attracted beneficiaries from different communities across the area. Participants received free medical consultations, health assessments, medications and other basic healthcare services.

Speaking during the programme, Mr. Abimbola Olufayo, Chief Executive Officer of Mercy Land Hospital, Oja Titun area, Ile-Ife, and a retired nurse, interacted with beneficiaries and educated them on the importance of taking proper care of their bodies.

He emphasised the need for individuals to maintain good personal hygiene, adopt healthy lifestyles and seek medical attention promptly whenever they experience symptoms of illness.

Also speaking at the event, Comrade Adeyemi Omoniyi Tayo, Chairman of the African Action Congress (AAC), told beneficiaries that citizens should not depend entirely on government for their healthcare needs. He encouraged individuals and community stakeholders to support initiatives that provide essential services to the people.

The royal father at the event, His Royal Majesty, Oba Michael Mayowa Adesina, the Eyenla of Amula Palace, Ile-Ife, commended the organiser for the initiative, describing the gesture as a demonstration of genuine concern for the wellbeing of the people.

Oba Adesina gave kudos to Hon. Olufayo Oladapo Henry for what he described as a commendable effort, adding that the organiser had demonstrated the qualities of a man of integrity and a caring individual through his commitment to supporting members of the community.

The monarch urged other individuals, organisations and well-meaning members of the society to emulate such initiatives and contribute to improving the welfare of the people.

Beneficiaries expressed appreciation to Hon. Olufayo Oladapo Henry for the intervention, describing the free medical outreach as timely and beneficial, particularly at a period when many families face challenges accessing affordable healthcare.

The programme underscores the importance of community-based initiatives and collective efforts in promoting accessible healthcare and improving the wellbeing of residents.
