65 FREE SURGERIES FOR 65 CHILDREN
Yesterday, I attended the final follow-up clinic and appreciation programme at Mother Mary Hospital, Isolo, Lagos, following the successful completion of 65 free surgeries for children to mark my 65th birthday.
I am deeply grateful to God Almighty for guiding the medical team throughout the process and for granting all 65 children safe and successful surgeries.
The surgeries, led by Dr Folaseye Adebayo and her dedicated team, included adenotonsillectomy. This procedure removes enlarged or chronically infected tonsils and adenoids, which can cause breathing difficulties, recurrent infections, and sleep-related problems in children.
What made the occasion particularly touching was listening to parents share their testimonies and hearing how these procedures have improved their children’s health and quality of life.
My profound appreciation goes to @DrFolaseye Adebayo and her entire team, the hospital management, the parents, and everyone who contributed to making this initiative possible.
For me, birthdays are not merely occasions for celebration. They are opportunities to give back, touch lives, and make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
I thank God for the privilege of being part of this initiative and, most importantly, for the gift of 65 healthy and hopeful children.
May God continue to bless all those who dedicate their lives to saving and improving the lives of others.

@OgbeniDipo Aside tribalism there’s literally nothing else you’re good at, it’s a shame what you’ve become from the Man I knew pre-2023 and I hope you’re aware how much your value has tanked from young intellectuals that once looked up to you.
Didn't get any of their top midfield targets.
No Left back or defender
No striker or winger

@akintollgate Go read what chinua Achebe said about "Yoruba Intellectuals” in There was a country and compare with what you’ve been seeing amongst them
@TheoAbuAgada@PeterObi@atiku What’s even your role in NDC? Honestly Peter Obi deserves the useless PR he’s getting from the incompetent people he watched NDC stuff him with. Imagine the page on a media spokesperson, No energy, No vibe, No sense!!! A non atiku dick-rider!
@fkeyamo@officialABAT 'Agreement is agreement'
People's lives. People's lives tabled like negotiation for loaves of bread.
You used to be respectable.
One day, when you're old and ragged - you'll bend your head in shame for the role you played in this country's ruin.
