A medical doctor and pharmacist, Dr. Chima Timothy, spoke about the medical mission organized by Ogbakor Ikwerre USA/Canada. According to him, the mission aimed to provide medical services to the people of Ikwerre land, particularly in the southern areas where access to healthcare is limited.
Speaking to newsmen in Port Harcourt, Dr. Timothy explained that the medical mission is a regular initiative, where the organization visits one of the local government areas to provide medical services. The team provides treatment in various areas of medicine, including surgery, gynecology, pharmacy, ophthalmology, and dental care.
He said that the medical mission is necessary because many people in the area lack access to adequate medical care due to financial constraints. The organization has taken it upon itself to provide medical services to these people, and Dr. Timothy emphasized that they are committed to serving the community.
