To propagate further the relevant information on the free treatment of club foot as being spread by The Straight Child Foundation, TSCF, the Chief Orientation and Mobilization Officer, COMO of the National Orientation Agency, Abia State, has engaged the people of Isuikwuato in a sensitization outreach.
Speaking at Echele- Otampa, the COMO NOA, Isuikwuato LGA, Prince Obasi Ikengwu, who explained the meaning of Clubfoot and its treatment, encouraged the participants to have a positive mindset and to present such cases earlier for intervention.
He informed them of the efforts made by the TSCF towards arresting Clubfoot and also notified them of the clinic existing at the Federal Medical Centre Umuahia every Thursdays from 9am.
Also in a related development, Chief Stanley Awazie, the NOA Umuahia North Chief Orientation and Mobilization Officer has notified nursing mothers and student nurses of the free treatment of Clubfoot on children between the ages of zero to five (0 – 5) years by the TSCF in partnership with Miraclefeet INC.
