In a recent surgical session held on Wednesday, the 22nd day of November, 2023, the Gburugburu Free Surgery Programme, owned and sponsored by former Governor Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, has once again demonstrated unwavering commitment to the healthcare needs of Enugu State residents.
The program successfully conducted surgeries on three individuals, bringing relief to the lives of Enugu citizens. Notable among the beneficiaries is 58-year-old Mrs. Victoria Okeafor from Nkpologu with the contactnumber, 08057133216, who had a left breast lump removed through Lumpectomy.
Young Miss Mmesoma Ugwuanyi, a 20-year-old from Orba in Udenu Local Government Area,09123266677, also received surgical intervention for an abnormal growth on her forehead, while 21-year-old Miss Onyeke Divine favour from Obukpa, 09066382388, had an abnormal growth on her neck corrected through the same procedures.
The Free Surgery humanitarian initiative aligns seamlessly with Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi's commitment to supporting the healthcare efforts of the current administration led by His Excellency, Gov. Peter Mbah, and Deputy Governor, His Excellency, Barr Ifeanyi Ossai.
While responding to FountainCare Reporters, Dr. George Ajogwu, the Director General of the Gburugburu Free Surgery Programme, praised Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi for his instrumental role in the program's mission. The former Governor's consistent commitment, both financially and through crucial medical equipment donations, has played a vital role in the program's success.
"The Gburugburu Free Surgery Programme stands as a testament to Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi's compassion for humanity, consistently bringing hope and relief to the citizens of Enugu State," remarked Dr. Ajogwu.
The former Governor's recent activities include the successful myomectomy for Mrs. Ezeugwu Maureen, appendectomy for 13-year-old Uchenna Ogbu, and herniotomy for three-year-old Chineke Chukwuemezuo. These cases highlight the program's broad impact on addressing critical healthcare needs in the state.
Also in a recent development, Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi's generous donation of a brand new Jet Mover to the management and medical team of the Gburugburu Free Surgery Programme aims to enhance their mobility for more efficient delivery of life-saving services. This gesture has garnered admiration from residents of Enugu State and beyond, further solidifying the former Governor's humanitarian legacy.
