As the World marks World Health Day today, April 7, the wife of Anambra State Governor, Dr. Mrs. Nonye Soludo, has drawn the attention of people of the state on the importance of examining the impact of their actions on achieving a progressive health society that caters to everyone’s needs.
This was let out in her release to the people of the state on the occassion of the celebration of the World Health Day in Awka on Tuesday.
She said, “As I always emphasize: health is the greatest wealth. It’s, in fact, the greatest measure of a thriving society.
“Therefore, building a solid health system, one that guarantees inclusion, is an all-time necessity, not a choice. This message is not for the government alone. Of course, it’s expected that the government must take a lead action. But the process demands a collective vision.
“In Anambra State, under the Solution Administration, we see the narrative more uniquely. Here, health is a practical action established on the right intention and in keen priority of the ordinary citizen.
“My NGO, Healthy Living with Nonye Soludo, is also leading an unprecedented crusade that has transformed the overall health consciousness and habits of our people. Our state-wide weekly workouts and consistent health education and outreaches have made massive impacts on homes and communities.”
In furtherance, the wife of the Anambra State governor insisted that as everyone should, “remember that health is not a one-off process. It’s a collection of those simple but significant daily actions that define good or bad health.”
“Take care of yourself always. Be mindful of what you consume. Health is irreplaceable,” she added.
