AkinọmọAkin is passionate about healthcare. My central vision for healthcare is to ensure no one
is left behind, especially vulnerable segments in the last mile of society.
- Infrastructure:we will lobby government agencies, NGOs, indigenes in the diaspora, etc., to
secure resources to bridge health infrastructure deficits in Ikole and Oye Local Governments – in all the primary health centres and the general hospitals.
- Health Missions / Surgical Festivals: we will hold periodic health missions and surgical
festivals.
- Public Health Education: we will champion public health education campaigns to achieve
behavioural modifications that would help prevent lifestyle diseases and early discovery of
these diseases for intervention.
- Address Negative Cultural Practices: We will champion campaigns against harmful cultural practices such as Female Genital Mutilation and other forms of Gender Based Violence.
- Menstrual Health Packs: We will establish a pad-bank so that as many young female constituents as possible can receive menstrual hygiene packages to keep them healthy in school
and at work during their periods.
- Infant and Maternal Health Kits: we will provide support for pregnant women, new mothers,
and their newborn children, to drastically reduce infant and maternal mortality rates and ensure
their well-being.
- Speciality Care: We will help vulnerable segments such as the elderly, persons with
disabilities, children with learning difficulties, etc.
- Motivation of Health Workers: We will provide avenues to incentivise health workers to
remain in our hospitals and give their best in providing care to constituents.
