One participant, Tosin Adeoye, shared her enthusiasm: “This is my third time attending, and each session is better than the last. It’s a great way to stay healthy and meet new people.”
The event also emphasized mental health and social cohesion, with officials reiterating its role in achieving optimal service delivery across the state.
