Independent (Innocent Ijeoma)
I am the health coordinator of YAGAZIE FOUNDATION, where we aim to close penitentiary doors by opening learning doors through education and sport, I take charge of the health education of especially Orphans and vulnerable Children (OVCs), focusing on drug abuse, sex education, menstrual health hygiene and personal hygiene. More than two thousand OVCs have now decided to quit drug abuse. I also take charge of health outreaches in terms of hypertension, diabetes, DASH diet and sickle cell anaemia.
