Adeleke listed the diseases to include: malaria, typhoid, blood sugar, blood pressure, arthritis, skin issues, hepatitis, HIV, eye tests as well as dental examination and care.
The executive director urged those having the above-listed diseases to take advantage of the medical outreach to get themselves screened and treated.
