More than 3,000 residents across the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) received vital medical treatment over the weekend through a joint humanitarian drive spearheaded by the Ti’Bilon Healthcare Foundation and the Anchor Men’s Fellowship of Family Worship Centre (FWC), Wuye.
The large-scale intervention ran simultaneously across six strategic locations in the nation’s capital: Wuye, Gwagwalada, Nyanya, Kubwa, Karu, and Lugbe. Designed to bridge healthcare gaps for vulnerable families regardless of religious or social background, the outreach targeted thousands of community members who face rising medical costs.
This news was revealed to the media on Sunday, August 16, 2026, following the medical outreach conducted over that weekend.
To ensure a comprehensive health response, medical volunteers delivered a broad spectrum of care through Primary Screening, monitoring blood pressure, blood sugar levels, and core vital signs for early disease detection.
There is Specialised Care for full dental assessments and corrective vision care, including the distribution of free reading glasses and on-site doctors provided clinical evaluations and dispensed free essential medications.
Highlighting the vision behind the initiative, Olugbenga Falusi, Programme Director of the Ti’Bilon Healthcare Foundation, speaking on behalf of Chief Executive Officer Dr. Toochukwu Nnamoko emphasized the power of community-level partnerships.
”We need to partner and collaborate with organisations that can get the people for us because they have the numbers. Our working together enables us to achieve our goal, which is in line with the World Health Organisation’s objective of ‘health for all,'” Churchill stated.
Reinforcing the mission, Ambassador Elijah Onyeagba, Chairman of the ANCHOR Planning Committee, noted that the drive aimed to address compounding social challenges while supporting municipal public health efforts.
”People have multiple dimensions of challenges, and what we try to do is contribute and give back to society while complementing government efforts in healthcare delivery,” Onyeagba explained, noting that the event was fully open to both Christians and non-Christians alike.
For local residents like Prisca Nwemo, who visited the Wuye centre alongside her mother, the initiative proved life-saving. Originally attending for an allergic condition, routine checks revealed critically high blood pressure, allowing doctors to administer immediate treatment.
The organizers confirmed that plans are already underway to make the free medical drive a regular fixture across the territory.
