A Comprehensive Healthcare Program
Number Three of My 12-Point Agenda
When given the mandate to serve as Governor of Ogun State in 2027, Deo Valente (God willing), one of the central pillars of my administration will be comprehensive medical care.
We will implement free, USA-standard medical screenings in all primary and secondary schools across Ogun State—both private and government-owned.
In a win-win initiative, we will train hundreds of women and men to become USA-grade Medical Assistants. Competent and highly capable, they will be permanently deployed to every primary and secondary school across Ogun State.
These trained professionals will conduct wellness checks for students on a rotational basis throughout the year, ensuring that every student receives at least one comprehensive health screening annually.
Male medical assistants will be assigned to male schools and male students, while female medical assistants will serve female schools and female students.
These professionals, trained under my administration, will also serve as coordinators for our fully free, nutritious, and delicious school feeding program, designed to enhance brain health—particularly among undernourished children.
It is well known that a child’s brain development depends not only on genetics but heavily on nutritional status, especially before the age of four. My administration will address this issue directly and decisively.
Key health indicators to be monitored include:
-
Vital signs
-
Growth percentiles
-
Hemoglobin levels
-
Urine test screenings
-
Physical examinations to detect signs of illness
-
Identification of social or environmental concerns
-
Treatment of minor skin ailments
All medical assistants will receive continuous refresher training courses, supported by my administration throughout our tenure, ensuring that their skills remain current, effective, and aligned with global best practices.
Because these well-paid, school-based medical assistants will be readily accessible and trusted within the school community, they will be able to make direct referrals to local healthcare centers whenever necessary.
These healthcare centers will be meticulously equipped, properly staffed, and adequately reimbursed to operate at optimal capacity.
They will function from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 midnight, seven days a week, and will be operated by well-trained and well-compensated registered nurses.
These nurses will also receive ongoing professional training and periodic refresher courses. Their work will be guided by clearly defined Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that will determine career advancement, increased compensation, and opportunities for professional specialization.
This system will liberate medical doctors to function at their optimal capacity, whether in hospitals or private clinics, allowing them to focus on specialized medical care while experiencing fulfillment in their profession.
As a medical doctor myself, I understand that attention to detail is essential to both success and sustainability in healthcare. My administration will empower medical professionals and auxiliary staff to perform at their highest levels—with compensation and incentives unlike anything previously experienced in Ogun State.
We will also introduce specialized, accessible programs for the physically and mentally challenged, creating an inclusive environment that promotes kindness, compassion, and dignity in care.
Our healthcare system will foster a culture of empathy, professionalism, and respect, ensuring that patients and their families are treated with the dignity they deserve.
Well-paid, well-trained, well-equipped, and well-appreciated healthcare staff will build a culture of excellence in medical care.
When combined with our Yorùbá values of community, compassion, and solidarity, this initiative will become a permanent game changer for healthcare in Ogun State.
