Over 200 residents of Tipper Garage area of Olomore Community in Abeokuta recently benefitted from a medical outreach organised by Akanke Foundation, a non-governmental organisation.

Akanke Foundation was established five years ago in honour of the late Mrs Felicia Akanke Obasa, mother of the Chairman of Winners Golden Group, Honourable Idowu Obasa.

The Foundation aims to achieve the following: to promote the virtue of motherhood and its imperatives in the modern day world; to provide free education to the less-privileged and Indigenes in the society; to put smile on the face of the less-privileged; to empower the aged widows and the less-privileged through training and financial assistance; and to give hope, succour and joy of living to the poor, thereby contributing to the growth and development of the society.

On Saturday, 30th September, 2023, the Foundation celebrated the 5th anniversary of the death of the late Mrs. Felicia Akanke Obasa with a medical outreach for the residents of the Tipper Garage area of Olomore Community.

Over 200 residents, mostly females benefitted from the programme put together by the medical arm of the Foundation.

During the exercise, the residents were screened freely of ailments such as: breast cancer, cervical cancer, diabetes and arthritis among others.

The medical team led by Dr Gbajumo took the residents through rigorous medical screening.

After the screening exercise, residents were given free drugs supplied by Bio Medical Pharmaceutical Company.

Few of the residents, whose medical results needed higher examination, were refered to the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Abeokuta.
