Delivering a health talk during the event, Dr. Adebisi Alabi stressed the importance of regular medical check-ups, especially for conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.
He warned that undetected health issues could be life-threatening, urging residents to adopt preventive measures through early diagnosis and healthy lifestyles.
According to him, poor dietary habits, including excessive consumption of junk food and carbohydrates, are major contributors to the rising cases of diabetes, adding that such conditions can be effectively managed when detected early.
Speaking on the success of the outreach, the Director General of KPGG, His Eminence Isah David Ohinoyi, JP, expressed gratitude to God for the opportunity to impact lives through the programme. He also appreciated the Kogi State Government for providing a peaceful environment that supports humanitarian initiatives.
Ohinoyi further commended the organisation’s Board of Trustees and staff for their dedication and commitment, noting that their efforts were instrumental to the success of the outreach.
He reaffirmed KPGG’s commitment to promoting the welfare of citizens and encouraged partnerships with non-governmental organisations, political leaders, and other stakeholders to expand similar interventions to underserved communities across the state.
The organisation also acknowledged the contributions of donors within and outside Kogi State, whose support made the outreach possible.
The fourth edition of the programme marks another milestone in KPGG’s efforts to improve public health and drive sustainable development in Kogi State.
