Army Provides Free Medical Services To Drivers In Ilorin
The Nigerian Army has provided free medical services to commercial drivers in Ilorin, the Kwara State's capital, South-west Nigeria.
The development, which was carried out by the 22 Brigade Medical Centre of Sobi Barracks in Ilorin, is coming as part of the contributions to communities and civilians in the state.
Leading the team, the Medical Director of the 22 Brigade Medical Centre, Captain Onyekachi Iheagwu, checked the blood pressure, weight, malaria parasite, sugar level and dental check-up at Akerebiata motor garage in Ilorin.
Addressing the drivers before the commencement of the exercise, Captain Iheagwu stressed the importance of constant medical check-up especially for the commercial drivers.
He noted that this would go a long way in saving lives and avoid sudden deaths of commercial drivers.
The Chairman of the motor garage, Ismaila Eletu, commended the Army for extending the free medical service to them.
He expressed hopes that the medical check-up would further ensure their safety, as well as called for constant and regular provision of the service.
It is expected that virtually 200 commercial drivers would benefit from the three-day free medical exercise.
