Subsidy palliative: Adeleke Commences free medical services for Osun residents
Osun governor, Ademola Adeleke, has commenced free medical outreach in the state as a palliative to mitigate the effect of residents’ high cost of living.
The state Commissioner for Health, Jola Akintola, disclosed that the Imole Free Medical Outreach is part of a welfare package for residents following the skyrocketed prices of commodities including drugs for patients after the removal of fuel subsidy.
Akintola said the Imole Free Medical Outreach would take place in Ilesa, Ile-Ife, Ede, Iwo, Ila and Osogbo.
The commissioner disclosed that medical experts, including doctors, nurses and pharmacists, will be drawn from the Osun State University Teaching Hospital, Osogbo and other health institutions across the state.
He explained that the medical outreach will involve general surgery, eye surgery and general medical care, which will all be absolutely free and sponsored by the state government.
