…As Residents Benefit From Initiative Ahead of November 14 Coronation

 Residents of Oko Baba Agba and neighbouring communities on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, benefited from a free medical outreach organised by the TA’AWUN Humanitarian Forum in partnership with the palace of the Olu of Oko Baba Agba, Oba Kabir Adesegun Bashir.
The medical outreach, which took place at the palace, witnessed a large turnout of residents who trooped out to access various healthcare services provided by the humanitarian organisation.

The initiative formed part of activities lined up for the week-long celebration leading to the coronation ceremony of Oba Kabir Adesegun Bashir scheduled for Saturday, November 14, 2026.
During the exercise, beneficiaries received free medical consultations, drugs, blood pressure checks and other medical examinations and treatments aimed at addressing their immediate healthcare needs.

The outreach was designed to bring essential healthcare services closer to the grassroots, particularly residents who may find it difficult to afford basic medical attention, while promoting health awareness and preventive healthcare within the community.

Speaking at the event, the President of the TA’AWUN Humanitarian Forum, Taiwo Lasisi Yusuf, said the organisation was in Oko Baba Agba to provide residents with access to medical care through its humanitarian intervention.
He urged beneficiaries to take the medical advice given to them by the consultants seriously, stressing the importance of following professional recommendations to maintain good health.

Yusuf also called on the government to give greater attention to non-governmental and humanitarian organisations by supporting their activities through financial assistance and other forms of partnership.

According to him, such support would strengthen their capacity to extend humanitarian services to more communities and reach a greater number of vulnerable people.

He explained that the activities of the TA’AWUN Humanitarian Forum go beyond healthcare delivery, noting that the organisation also provides educational and youth empowerment programmes as part of its commitment to improving the living conditions of people.
He disclosed that the foundation offers educational support through scholarships and free preparatory classes for students sitting for the General Certificate of Education (GCE), West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WAEC) and Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) examinations.

Yusuf further highlighted the organisation's empowerment initiatives, which provide young people with practical skills in coding, Artificial Intelligence (AI), solar installation and phone engineering to enhance their employability, self-reliance and economic opportunities.

He commended the Olu of Oko Baba Agba, Oba Kabir Adesegun Bashir, for providing the platform and welcoming the organisation to the community, describing the partnership as an opportunity to bring meaningful humanitarian services closer to the people.
He prayed for God's guidance and blessings upon the monarch, adding that the TA’AWUN Humanitarian Forum remained willing to sustain its partnership with the palace in delivering healthcare, educational and other humanitarian interventions to residents.

Also speaking, Prince Kehinde Saliu, who represented the monarch, said Oba Kabir Adesegun Bashir was delighted with the decision of the TA’AWUN Humanitarian Forum to partner with the palace in organising the medical outreach.

He said the monarch was particularly pleased that the initiative provided an opportunity for residents, especially those who might not ordinarily have access to such services, to benefit from free medical attention.

Saliu expressed the palace's appreciation to the organisation for extending its humanitarian activities to Oko Baba Agba, describing the intervention as a welcome development that directly addressed the welfare and wellbeing of the people.

He noted that the initiative reflected the importance of collaboration between traditional institutions and humanitarian organisations in promoting community development and improving the quality of life of residents.
