Medical Outreach 2020

In continuation of PUWI’s 2-day Widows Outreach in Suleja, Niger State, A medical team led by Mrs Chinwe Nwabuisi in collaboration with Prime Unique Women Initiative (PUWI) team on Saturday, December 19, 2020, attended to widows at the Suleja Local Government Secretariat, to conduct health check on the widows who benefitted the previous day from the food distribution program designed to put smiles on their faces. To kick-start this 2nd and final day of the Widows Outreach, Mr. Charles Eluma, Director of Operations of PUWI, welcomed the beneficiaries to the event, reminding them that the day’s event is a testament of a promise kept. He further encouraged them not to despair but be rest assured that PUWI will liaise with the local government management to ensure that they are taken care of, and that none of them goes to bed on an empty stomach. Thereafter, the medical team set to work, checking their vital signs, blood pressure, blood sugar and counselling them individually and collectively on how best to care for their health because, indeed, health is wealth.

In all, 48 of the 100 beneficiaries from previous day benefitted from the health check. Many of them were full of praises and appreciation for PUWI for remembering them especially at this time.
