The Rotary Club of Ikeja has conducted an immunisation exercise as part of efforts to eradicate polio and protect children from diseases.
As the world commemorated World Polio Day recently, the club joined the global campaign to sustain a polio- free world with the End Polio Immunisation programme which took place at the Isolo Community Center, Rotary Road, Isolo Lagos.
The programme was attended by over fifty mothers who brought their children for immunisation as well as members of the club.
Speaking at the event, Lanre Lawal, the president of the club, said Rotary International is at the forefront in eradicating polio and making this world a polio-free one.
‘’We are here in our community to sensitise mothers about the importance of immunising their children, especially from age zero to five years old.
“In addition, we have also carried out immunisation exercise and we are very grateful to the health personnel as well as mothers who have trooped out to benefit from this,” Lawal said.
