In a powerful demonstration of its commitment to sustainable community development, Transit Gas Nigeria Limited—a subsidiary of Axxela, sub-Saharan Africa’s leading gas and power solutions company—has officially handed over a newly built, fully equipped Primary Healthcare Centre to the Imodi-Ijasi community in Odogbolu Local Government Area of Ogun State.
Boosting Access to Affordable, Quality Healthcare
This milestone project is part of Axxela’s broader Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategy, aimed at bridging healthcare gaps in underserved communities. The facility is set to provide comprehensive primary care services, including maternal and child health, outpatient care, and diagnostic services.
Commissioning Ceremony: A Community Celebration
The commissioning event was graced by several dignitaries, including the Honourable Commissioner for Health in Ogun State, Dr. Tomi Coker, representatives from the State Ministry of Health, community leaders led by the Baale of Imodi-Ijasi, and company officials.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Kehinde Alabi, Managing Director of Axxela Gas Distribution, emphasized the company’s people-centric philosophy. “Our CSR interventions are designed in close consultation with community stakeholders to understand their specific needs. With the handover of this facility, we are confident that access to affordable, quality healthcare will improve significantly—especially for women, children, and the elderly.”
Government Commends Private Sector Partnership
Dr. Tomi Coker lauded the initiative as an example of effective public-private collaboration. “This project exemplifies the kind of strategic partnership we encourage between government and the private sector to achieve universal health coverage. Axxela’s commitment to sustainable development aligns perfectly with our administration’s health vision,” she said.
Free Health Outreach Benefits Residents
The event also featured a free health outreach for residents, which included:
- Blood pressure and glucose testing
- Diagnostic scans and general consultations
- Distribution of hundreds of mosquito nets
These services helped address immediate health needs while raising awareness about preventive healthcare practices.
More Than Infrastructure: Axxela’s Broader Impact
This project reflects Axxela’s dedication to responsible corporate citizenship. The company’s CSR initiatives extend beyond healthcare, with investments also targeted at education and community empowerment.
As a leader in Nigeria’s energy space, Axxela continues to prove that business success and social impact can go hand-in-hand. The Imodi-Ijasi Primary Healthcare Centre is not just a building—it is a beacon of hope and a model for inclusive, impactful development.
