Ezechi added that such partnerships were critical to enhancing the living standards of the people.
He also said that the health and well-being of his constituents were of utmost priority to him, saying that he would have no business being in Abuja if the people who gave him the mandate to represent them could not access quality healthcare.
The medical outreach programme would provide a various services, including free consultations and medications, while a team of medical professionals, including doctors, nurses, and other health workers, will be on ground to attend to patients.
The flag off ceremony was well attended by community leaders, and other stakeholders, who praised the Lawmaker’s efforts to improve the health and wellbeing of his constituents.
