As part of his two-day free medical outreach, Senator Saliu Mustapha of Kwara Central has sponsored hundreds of his constituents for free eye surgery.
The outreach, which began on Saturday, January 25, 2025, at Seriki Driver House in Gambari, Ilorin East Local Government Area (LGA), concluded today at Daudu Afon’s Court in Asa LGA.
In addition to the eye surgeries, the program also provided treatment for malaria, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, musculoskeletal pain, peptic ulcer disease, asthma, eye complaints, rheumatism, urinary tract infections, gastroenteritis, pneumonia, and respiratory tract infections.
It also provided treatment for critical conditions such as hernias, breast lumps, hydroceles, and appendicitis, with surgical operations arranged to address these issues for the beneficiaries.
Speaking on the impact of the program, Alhaja Ramat Ahmed, one of the beneficiaries, expressed her gratitude to Senator Saliu Mustapha for the life-changing support.
She said; “I struggled with cataracts for years and couldn’t afford surgery. Today, I can see clearly, thanks to Senator Mustapha’s kindness.”
