Rep. Tolulope Akande-Sadipe (APC-Oluyole) in partnership with Amoke Foundation have donated medical equipment worth millions of naira to four Primary Healthcare Centres (PHCs) in Oluyole Federal Constituency to improve health care services.

Akande-Sadipe made this known in a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Mr Olamilekan Olusada and made available to newsmen in Ibadan on Monday.

The lawmaker said that the equipment were received by the matrons-in-charge of the four health centres in Odo-Ona, Idi-Ayunre, Adaramagbo and Ayetoro PHCs, all within the constituency.

She said that the equipment and supplies would cater for the well-being of the people and promised not to relent on her efforts to meet their basic needs.

The lawmaker urged the use of the equipment at no cost for the less privileged.

“Oluyole Federal Constituency is quite a populated area. So, in our wisdom, we selected four PHCs where we believe members of the communities can easily access.

“I know the needs of my people and I am trying as much as possible to address as many as possible through my WWREEEP campaign promises.

“The supplies and equipment were facilitated through Amoke Foundation for the TASK Affordable Health Care Initiative,” she said.

The lawmaker further said that the initiative also provided training, birthing supplies and equipment to enhance the skills of traditional birth attendants in the local government.

She thanked Mr Jide Adetunji, the Representative of Amoke Foundation for finding her constituency worthy of the donation.

Akande-Sadipe urged the medical personnel to put the equipment and other supplies to good use.

“My office is ready to collaborate with relevant tiers of government and its agencies to deliver to our constituency,” she said.

The lawmaker pledged to train more members of her constituency in the area of community health care.
