“We will be treating over 500 people. We believe that bringing healthcare services to this many people in the community will make a significant impact, particularly through the early detection of diseases and the treatment of minor ailments that can be managed effectively if caught early,” Akomolafe said.
In his remarks, Oba Bisiriyu Adeniji, called on government at all levels to emulate the Benson Adeyemi Foundation’s initiative by providing free and affordable healthcare to rural areas.

“This program is part of the activities rolled out to mark my one-year anniversary as a king, and I am grateful to my son and the Benson Adeyemi Foundation for their support through this free medical outreach,” Oba Adeniji said. “If an individual can undertake such an initiative, the government can certainly assist as well. Many untimely deaths occur because people cannot afford adequate healthcare, and it is crucial for the government to come to the aid of those living in rural areas.”
