Hon Alimi Nurudeen, Chairman Councillors Forum, Lagos State and President of Nigeria Councillors Forum, said to MegaXpression Community Magazine that "there are some salient killers health wise and we need to address it. The feedback I got today shows that we have a lot of people walking on our street that are almost walking corpses. The reason is that people. don't bother to check their vitals, they don't know what their blood pressure is or whether they have diabetes or any other disease, "he said.

"‎This is not the first time we are doing this and we just feel it is very necessary to sensitize and galvanize support for this programme for our people to realize that they must check themselves from time to time, its only a useless community that will not care for those who are sick, the more able people we have, the better for the community, even the better for the government," Alimi added.

Now I have come here and after the test, they have given me my glasses, I am so happy "he exclaimed.
