Marcel Ofomata Foundation to Host Free 2-Day Medical Outreach in Anambra to Mark 10th Anniversary

As part of its 10th Anniversary celebrations, the Marcel Ofomata Foundation is set to host a two-day Free Medical Outreach this August, reaching residents in the communities of Isuofia, Nanka, and Igboukwu in Anambra State. This initiative reflects the Foundation’s enduring commitment to improving community health, advancing well-being, and ensuring access to essential medical care for underserved populations.

Inspired by the tremendous success of its 17th Free Medical Mission, the outreach will provide residents with comprehensive health services at no cost. Participants will receive free medical consultations and diagnostic services. The outreach will also offer treatment for common conditions and carry out minor surgical procedures where necessary. In addition, there will be eye screenings, with free prescription glasses given to those in need. Laboratory testing will be available, and the Foundation will also conduct health education sessions focused on preventive care and wellness practices.

The two-day event is scheduled to take place on August 13 and 14, 2025, beginning each day at 9:00 AM. On the first day, activities will be held at the Ozalla Primary Health Center in Isuofia. On the second day, the outreach will be conducted simultaneously at two venues: the Palace of the Igwe in Nanka and Landmark Hotel, Umudebe, Igboukwu.

Speaking ahead of the outreach, Abayomi Disu, Programs Director of the Marcel Ofomata Foundation, remarked, “This 2-day outreach is not only a response to urgent community health needs — it is also a celebration of 10 years of impact and service. Our goal is simple: to reach the unreached and bring healing where it’s needed most.”

The outreach is open to all residents of Isuofia, Nanka, Igboukwu, and surrounding towns. Everyone is encouraged to attend and take full advantage of this opportunity to receive free, quality healthcare from trusted professionals.

”This outreach stands as a shining example of what 10 years of service and dedication to humanity can achieve.” He further said.

For more information or to explore partnership opportunities, interested parties can contact the Marcel Ofomata Foundation via phone at (+234) 814 633 5302, by email at info@marcelofomatafoundation.org, or through the official website: www.marcelofomatafoundation.org.

The Foundation also maintains offices across Nigeria. In Abuja, it is located at Ojimadu Nwaeze House, behind Chida International Hotel, Utako. In Anambra State, the office is at Dr. Amaechi Ofomata Crescent, Ozalla–Isuofia Road, from Ekwulobia Junction, Aguata LGA. The Akwa Ibom State office is at No. 2 Amaecom Close, Off William Street, Aka Road – Uyo.

How FIFA Can Revive its Brand Image

Former FIFA Vice President Jack Warner, who was one of 14 people indicted in a massive bribery scandal, vowed to reveal new evidence against the world soccer's governing body and its embattled president, Sepp Blatter. It's just the latest blow to a brand in crisis. Right now, FIFA is engaged in a high-stakes "win or go home" game of penalty kicks, with the sponsors who line their pockets with billions of dollars on the offensive side of the shoot-out getting ready for their kicks, while its own embattled brand is in goal, gearing up to block and deflect anything that comes its way. Meanwhile, a global consumer audience that has celebrated the game for generations is blowing the whistle and pointing to the penalty spot, its trust on the line.

Saraki’s Albatross: The Need to Sheath Animosity

When the 2015 general elections were approaching, the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) preached and campaigned transformation and transition from the status quo that the former ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) used in administering the affairs of the nation for nearly two decades. The APC clamoured for substitution of the then state of affairs. They adduced reasons why it was good for Nigeria to make the 2015 election and its aftermath different in some particular ways, without permanently losing former characteristics or essence of nationhood to replace what they described as slow pace of development which is change.
