Lagos De-Worms 5,000 Children

[Shola Sholaz]

For most parents, the mass de-worming exercise embarked upon by the Lagos State Government recently must have been a great respite as most children would run away upon sighting a worm expeller!
.
An estimated 5,000 pupils from eight nursery and primary schools in Kosofe Local Government Area of the state converged at the Maryland School Complex to gain knowledge about their health and well-being from the Health-Teacher-of-the-Day, Hon. Adejoke Orelope-Adefulire, who doubles as the state Deputy Governor and Commissioner for Women Affairs & Poverty Alleviation.
.
The exercise was declared open by First Lady of the State, Dame Abimbola Fashola.
