Nigerians have been urged to take greater responsibility for their health by adopting preventive measures against both communicable and non-communicable diseases. Ultimate Health Management Organisation (HMO) emphasised that prioritising prevention not only fosters healthier lifestyles but also boosts individual productivity, benefiting families and society at large.
To drive this message home, the HMO offered free health screenings and counselling services to passengers on trains and at major train stations across the country. The outreach, carried out in partnership with the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC), covered the Abuja-Kaduna, Lagos-Ibadan, and Warri-Itakpe routes, delivering essential healthcare services to thousands of commuters.

The healthcare professionals provided on-the-go health assessments, including screenings for blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), blood sugar levels, and other vital indicators. Passengers also received personalized health counseling aimed at helping them understand their current health status and offering practical guidance to maintain or improve their well-being
Otunba Ewenla, Chief Executive Officer of Ultimate Health HMO, explained the motivation behind the initiative, saying, “We believe that health is a right, not a privilege. Through our collaboration with the Nigerian Railway Corporation, we were able to reach a large number of individuals, especially those who may not have regular access to healthcare services.”
Ewenla added: “This initiative is an integral part of our commitment to making preventive healthcare more accessible, while also raising awareness about the importance of maintaining good health, not just on World Health Day, but every day.”
The outreach also included health education sessions that emphasised the importance of informed lifestyle choices, focusing on healthy eating, regular physical activity, and effective stress management. Ultimate Health HMO is committed to delivering innovative and comprehensive health plans focused on preventive care and health education to ensure accessible, quality healthcare for individuals and families
