PROMISE KEPT AS HON OKEY-JOE (HOJ) ONUAKALUSI’S MEDICAL HEALTH OUTREACH BRINGS SUCCOUR TO OSHODI/ISOLO LGA



Lagos – It was a promise kept for Hon. Barr. Okey – Joe Jesse Onuakalusi, member representing Oshodi/Isolo Federal Constituency II at the House of Representatives, as he flagged off a Medical Health Outreach for the people of Oshodi/Isolo LGA, in fulfillment of a campaign promise.
Although, his constituency is Oshodi/Isolo Federal Constituency II, he always ensures that the entire Oshodi/Isolo LGA, comprising both Oshodi/Isolo Federal Constituency I and Oshodi/Isolo Federal Constituency II are accommodated in his programs and projects.
Perhaps, it is due to his position as Leader of Labour Party (LP) in the entire Oshodi/Isolo LGA. However, in line with his policy, the highly publicized outreach was attended massively by residents of Oshodi/Isolo, in their thousands.

Addressing journalists at the event, he said, “I’m glad today, to be fulfilling one of my campaign promises to my people.
“Although this is the first time such an outreach is being held here, I’m sponsoring this personally. The next one which was captured in the 2024 budget shall be bigger and better.
He urged his constituents to remain steadfast and patient since he was just one year in office, assuring them of sterling representation and other dividends of democracy.
The outreach compromised free laboratory Investigations, eye tests and eye glasses, medications and medical counseling.

The free Medical Outreach slated to run for three days Thursday 27th June to Saturday the 29th of June 2024, with experienced medical personnel on ground.

Mazi Chuks Nwosu, Special Adviser on Media and Communication to the Hon Okey-Joe conclusively threw more light on the outreach re-affirming t reason behind the program.
Nwosu cited the high cost of medications presently which is way out of the reach of the common masses while noting that such a program wouldn’t have come at a better time, as a healthy people begets a wealthy nation.
For the people of Oshodi/Isolo federal constituency II, the free Health Outreach will not only alleviate their health status but will also give them the dividend of democracy in their choice of Honourable Okey Joe Onuakalusi.
Accommodating both young and old who are having health challenges as well as keeping an update on their health status.
