Awesu Extends Free Healthcare Outreach to Ikorodu’s Elderly Ahead of July 4

QS Abdul Azeez Awesu Adekunle has announced plans to expand his healthcare intervention outreach for elderly residents in Ikorodu Central, targeting wards G, B, and A, specifically Agura-Iponmi and Lowa, before July 4, 2025.

The initiative follows a recent successful outreach held in Obun Ale, Ward E, where over 150 elderly beneficiaries received free medical services.

Speaking on the motive behind the programme, Awesu emphasized continuity and inclusiveness:

“This is not the only one we will be doing. There is still going to be about two to three more activities we will embark on in various wards in Ikorodu Central. This is just one of them—more to come.”

He detailed the medical interventions carried out during the Obun Ale outreach:

“We had series of tests—urinary analysis, malaria, and a whole lot. They met with a doctor, they had consultations with the doctor to examine the result of their tests. Some of them have been referred for further diagnosis, while for some we buy drugs and take it up from there.”

Awesu, who is also a local government aspirant in the forthcoming Lagos State elections, reiterated his commitment to grassroots development:

“We feel if we want to do anything, let us start from home, that is why we are here today. We plan to have three outreaches—this is just the first one. We are still going to Agura-Iponmi, that is Ward G, and by July 4, we will be having another one in Lowa, Ward A and B.”

In reference to his political readiness, he added:

“The name Awesu is a household name in Ikorodu. There is no place you go in Ikorodu and people don’t know Awesu. We are practically on ground. We have our councilors in each of the wards. Old women and old men benefitted. Charity begins at home; this is why we are starting from here.”

As Awesu gears up for both civic impact and political engagement, his healthcare drive continues to earn public goodwill across Ikorodu Central.
