The turnout of the clients was great and over whelming at the OPD. They were screened and those fit for surgery were given dates to report for admission and surgery or operation the following day by Dr.Benjamin Akinkang Adabasue. To the glory of God the team of hope operated for Eight (8) days and touched 128 lives.
The clients are doing well in their homes and some in the wards. This is evident as they come for change of dressing. The clients are very appreciative to the team of hope for having touched their lives in a very special way and they pray that God increase the team from strength to strength to enable the sustainability of the programme/project.
