We, the management, are committed to ensuring that we make an impact on communities where we operate. That is why we are here. Today is significant to us too as the entire world celebrates love. For us at Ikeja Electric, our theme this year is ‘Clean Love,’ so, we are celebrating pure love and saying ‘no to drugs’, as well.

“Being here today is motivated by love and to donate the phototherapy equipment and clinical items to the Pediatric Unit is something significant that will add value to what already exists in the hospital. Ikeja Electric has also come to appreciate the management and staff for providing healthcare services to the neighbourhood and residents of Ikorodu town. We love the fact that you are our customer. And we have come to do our community service,” she said.

As a hospital, we are really elated to receive them. We are very happy that we have other organisations who like to partner with the government to make healthcare service in Lagos State much better than it is.

“That phototherapy machine will serve a lot of children in treating jaundice. And we believe that if we are able to treat more people, we will be able to have better health in our population in Lagos State. This phototherapy machine is going to go a long way in making a difference in the lives of these children.
