Dr Ogunlaja also tolled in the same line with Dr. Enifeni on the damages that alcohol and smoking caused the society.

The Chairman, Igbogbo/Bayeku LCDA, Comrade Olusesan Daini thanked people of the community for their support for his administration, promising that they would not be disappointed.

He said, “I am filled with joy as I join you this morning, not just as Chairman of Igbogbo/Bayeku LCDA but also as a true son of this great community, to sensitize our youth to shun alcohol, smoking and cultism. I want to assure that this sensitisation programme will hold periodically.

In his eloquent address, His Royal Majesty, Oba Kasali said that the easiest way to discover upcoming unfavourable health conditions was through medical check-ups, which according to him would enable early diagnosis and easier management.

According to him when speaking with Shakiru Seidu of MegaXpression Magazine, “Health is wealth, poor health is a common enemy to all and there is need for us to wage a collective war against it. This can only be achieved through early diagnosis and treatment”, Kabiyesi said.
