Speaking at the event, Livebridge Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Nwaneri Obinna Flaker expressed his joy at being able to help those in need.

“It is both a great pleasure and privilege to give back to the community. This is something we do annually as part of our corporate social responsibility,” he said.

Flaker noted that the outreach coincided with his birthday, making the occasion even more special. “It gladdens my heart to use this day to reach out to those in need,” he added.

Addressing the high cost of healthcare in Nigeria, Flaker urged the federal government to take more decisive action to expand access to primary healthcare services.

“The cost of drugs is beyond the reach of the common man. We advise that the government should intervene, particularly in primary healthcare delivery, as many Nigerians are unable to access these essential services,” he explained.

Ejembi Alice, Head of Customer Service at Livebridge, emphasized the importance of supporting vulnerable communities during such challenging times.

“If people who can fend for themselves are struggling, imagine the plight of those with disabilities. That’s why we are here today—to offer some relief and show love to this community.”
