Visited a slum today in Lagos in preparation for a medical outreach we are planning this week.
It was an eye opener.
It just reiterated to me that we need to do more concerning youth awareness and substance use.
I saw young people like myself with bloodshot red eyes.
I smelt the deep ooze of cannabis.
I felt the air of nicotine smoke.
I saw as young boys and girls grabbed their roll of drugs.
I saw as heavily tattooed youths sat with a game of Ayo while a bottle containing mixtures was by their side.
I saw pregnant girls went about their daily activities, wallowing in the marshy puddle of water.
I saw a flow of people struggling with substance use.
Then I asked myself, That could have been me?
But perhaps, knowledge and opportunity was what made a difference.
It gave me a focal point to think.
So much to do
So many lives to touch.
Young people like myself must be invested in the business of changing lives.
We are planning a big massive outreach to Surulere this week.
We are giving free medical care, free medications, free groceries, free foodstuff, free consultation, free therapy sessions, free pads, free sanitary towels and more
It's been tasking putting this together.
Hundreds of hours and team efforts/ strategy.
We are storming Surulere with a team of Doctors, Nurses, Lab scientists, Psychiatrists, Pharmacists and other Healthcare workers.
WE ARE NOT THUGS
