In yet another remarkable display of humanitarian commitment, the Gburugburu Free Surgery Programme (GFSP) has once again succeeded in changing lives, providing critical medical assistance to four Enugu citizens. Under the stewardship of Dr. George Ajogwu, the Director-General of GFSP, this initiative has proven to be a lifeline for those in need.
Operating on August 18th, 2023, at the Chief Julius Ajogwu Memorial Hospital, the GFSP tackled severe surgical cases that had plagued the individuals. Among the beneficiaries were Bibian Ngozi Ogbu (24), who underwent a successful Right Breast Lump and Lumpectomy; Eddy Charles (68), who received treatment for Giant Lipoma through Lumpectomy; Ugwuanyi Juliana (42), benefiting from Umbilical Hernia surgery and herniorrhaphy; and young Okoro Munich Samuel (4), who underwent Right Hydrocoele of the Cord surgery, including Herniorrhaphy, Herniotomy, and Orchidopexy.
The above have summed up the number of Beneficiaries to 1,337 on the 18th of August, 2023.
The initiative was conceived and sponsored by former Governor His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, during his tenure, and has continued under his sponsorship in support of the current Governor, Barr. Peter Mbah, and Deputy Governor, Barr. Ifeanyi Ossai. This enduring commitment to public health highlights the unity of purpose across gubernatorial administrations to uplift the healthcare landscape in Enugu State.
Dr. George Ajogwu, a driving force behind GFSP, emphasized that the programme's mission is to alleviate the suffering of Enugu's citizens, particularly those with limited financial means residing in rural areas. Through this vital initiative, individuals like Bibian Ngozi Ogbu, Eddy Charles, Ugwuanyi Juliana, and Okoro Munich Samuel have found renewed hope and health.
The Gburugburu Free Surgery Programme is a shining example of effective governance in action, embodying the dedication to the well-being of Enugu State residents. Every Saturday, Sunday, and Thursday of each week, this programme extends its reach to touch the lives of those in need.
