She explained that the scheme is targeted at providing quality health care services to all residents of the state without facing financial hardship while obtaining medical care.
With reference to Super Eagles striker Sanusi Ibrahim, a professional player for the Club de Foot Montreal in Canada who funded 110 beneficiaries' health insurance premiums in Keffi through his SI14 Foundation, the marketing director urged even more with the society's affluent market women to utilise the agency adoption initiative to pay for the weaker and less fortunate members of the society.
Dogara (Mrs.), expressed gratitude on behalf of the agency to the market women for their time and audience, urging the leadership of the association to extend the sensitization to all its members.
