This transformative initiative will provide free health insurance coverage to eligible residents, thereby ensuring access to quality healthcare services”. – he said.

In response to the pressing healthcare needs of the community, Ogene Ogbunike has been actively working to address the challenges faced by ndi Ogbunike.
