The Kwara South senatorial district candidate for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 general elections, Prince Olalekan Adewoye, has paid N3.8 million in medical bills for two indigent patients who have been under monthly medical expenses at the state general hospital.
Speaking during his visit to the Kwara State University Teaching Hospital (former General Hospital, Ilorin) on Saturday, the senatorial candidate said that the intervention ensured immediate discharge and continued care of the patients, who had been unable to settle the bills for their treatments.
Prince Adewoye also extended additional support of ₦1 million to other patients admitted in the ward to assist with their feeding and other immediate welfare needs.
“The intervention brought visible relief and renewed hope to patients on admission”, he said.
Speaking on the purpose of his visit, Prince Adewoye stated that true leadership and genuine wealth are measured not by personal possessions, but by the positive impact they make on the lives of the less privileged, particularly in critical sectors such as healthcare.
The APC Kwara South Senatorial District Candidate emphasised that extending compassion and support to those in need is a fundamental responsibility of every leader committed to the well-being of society.
He prayed for all the patients in the hospital, asking God to grant them healing, perfect health and speedy recovery to reunite with their families.
The atmosphere in the ward was transformed with joy as patients, their families, and hospital staff expressed profound gratitude, offering heartfelt prayers and words of appreciation for Prince Adewoye’s generosity and kindness.
Medical personnel at the hospital commended Prince Adewoye for the gesture, describing it as a significant humanitarian contribution that will go a long way in supporting indigent patients and encouraging others to emulate such kindness.
Prince Lekan Adewoye has remained consistent in his philanthropy across Kwara South, with interventions spanning healthcare support, education, empowerment and community development.
