Wife of the Executive Chairman of Agege Local Government, Mrs Ramat Egunjobi is elated about the success recorded in the just concluded Maternal, Newborn and Child Health Week organised by the council.

"We are happy with the way our mothers took advantage of the Maternal, Newborn and Child Health Week. We had positive reports that they cooperated with our healthcare givers who moved round the communities to administer vaccination on our infant children."

"Also, reports from all our Public Health Centers showed that nursing mothers trooped out enmass to receive medical attention from the health workers.

"I can assure you that the well being of everybody in Agege is on top of many dividends of democracy that the leadership of Agege LGA has in plan. With your support and prayers, it would be a success story in the end." Mrs Egunjobi concluded.

Earlier, while declaring the Maternal, Newborn and Child Health Week open, the Executive Chairman of Agege LGA, Ganiyu Kola Egunjobi reiterated that one of the cardinal objectives of his administration is to provide qualitative health care delivery services to all constituents in Agege Local Government.
