It was a weekend of fun recently for residents of
the Home Science Estate, Alakuko in the Alagbado area of Lagos State, as
Nutricima Limited lured them out with music and dance for free health checks.
The occasion was part of the ongoing Yo! Community Health Check that has been
going round several communities in Lagos.
Residents of the estate turned out in their
thousands for the free health check, being initially attracted by the
entertainment provided by a dance-troupe that went round the estate to
reinforce announcements earlier made to arouse residents to come for free
health checks. So good was the dance-troupe that residents joined them and took
advantage of the body exercise that dance offered before queuing for the Yo! Free
Community Health Check.

Smith, Assistant Brand Manager, Yo! Yoghurt who joined in the hospitality
provided by the occasion expressed joy at being able to touch the people
positively. He noted that “residents have commended Nutricima Limited on the
initiative of bringing to them the platform where they could engage in healthy
exercises as well as receiving free health services and consultations.”
The company did not only entertain those that
turned out for free health checks, each person that turned up went home with
Yo! Yoghurt drinks which they testified has “natural taste and a feel of
quality,” according to Adekunle Oluwatosin, a teacher who turned up to savour
the dance and take advantage of the free health checks.
“Yo! Yoghurt,” according to her, “comes with great
taste and healthy refreshing option which comes in handy. I got the information
through an announcement in the church so I had to take the opportunity that has
presented itself since it has been long that I went for health checks. Big
thanks to Nutricima for this wonderful initiative!”
Another resident that turned out for the thrill of
music, dance and free health checks, Omobolanle Obe who also first got wind of
the exercise in the church apart from healthy body and mind exercise through
music and dance, was checked by medical consultants on her blood pressure,
weight and height. The medics certified her of good health elated her the more,
as “it’s been over 10 years that I checked my health status. Thanks to
Nutricima for this rare opportunity,” she said.
