Over 1,500 residents of Ibusa in Delta State have benefited from a three-day medical outreach organized by the Association of Ibusa Professional Women (AIPROW) and the Ibusa Association, USA. The program included a career talk, mental health seminar, and free medical consultations, blood sugar tests, eye and cancer screenings. The turnout exceeded expectations, straining the organizers' capacity, but volunteer doctors and nurses helped meet the demand.

The event also distributed eyeglasses and medications to those in need. AIPROW President, Mrs Elizabeth Idigbe, expressed gratitude for the overwhelming response and appreciation for the Ibusa Association's continued support. She highlighted the importance of such healthcare interventions and encouraged other communities to adopt similar initiatives.
