HEALTH
We aim to impr
ove the quality and accessibility of healthcare
across Ojodu by upgrading primary health centres, ensuring

on maternal health, sanitation, and common diseases like
malaria and hypertension.
Why It’s Important in Ojodu:
Many constituency in Ojodu still rely on overstretched health
facilities or private care they can’t afford. Strengthening
healthcare here means fewer preventable deaths, healthier
families, and a stronger workforce. It also reduces the pressure on major hospitals outside the area.

Why It’s Important in Ojodu:
Ojodu is full of brilliant young minds, but many public schools are

.
Why It’s Important in Ojodu:
Ojodu has one of the largest youth populations in Lagos. Sadly,
