The initiative, spearheaded by the hospital, aimed to underscore the importance of health within the community and align with the festival’s spirit of giving back.
Alhaji Ahmed Adeniyi, a member of the Kayokayo committee, highlighted that the medical outreach was a crucial aspect of the festival.

“We are providing free medical check-ups, tests, and medications to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to maintain their well-being.”
Dr. Olaitan Oladele, a physician from Epe General Hospital, emphasized the importance of proactive health management.
“It’s essential for individuals not to wait until their health deteriorates before seeking medical attention,” Dr. Oladele advised.
“Utilize opportunities like this free outreach to get checked and ensure your health is in good standing.”
The outreach saw a significant turnout from community members who took advantage of the free services offered.
Many expressed their gratitude for the initiative, noting the importance of having access to health services in their local area.
