Lagos LCDA chair unveils free surgery programme for children

The Ojodu Local Council Development Area in Lagos State has launched a one-week free surgical programme for children aged 18 and below to alleviate the financial burden of specialised medical treatment on their families. The initiative, part of the council's HEYS Agenda, aims to improve access to healthcare and reduce the financial pressure on parents whose children require surgery.

The programme, themed 'Bringing Hope and Healing to our Children,' has been organised in partnership with various organisations and hospitals, including Ifako-Ijaiye General Hospital, Life Care Development Foundation, and City of God Cathedral.
