The Chief Executive Officer of Bright Imagery Photography, Ebenezer Oyelade, has marked his birthday with free medical test for residents of Osogbo,as a way of giving back to the society.
The initiative was held on Saturday, September 12, 2026, in Osogbo the Osun State Capital, as the outreach featured free checks including blood pressure, weight and height for Body Mass Index calculation, fasting blood sugar, as well as Hepatitis B and C tests.
Speaking during the programme, Oyelade said the initiative was his way of appreciating his family, friends, clients and members of the community for their support while also creating an opportunity for people to know their health status.
The birthday celebrant added that although he might not have money or material gifts to give people, he believed the free medical tests could make a meaningful difference in their lives.
Oyelade said his decision was also driven by his belief that good health was more valuable than wealth, noting that having money becomes meaningless when an individual is unable to enjoy good health or work because of illness.
According to him, “The reason I chose this programme is that I know health is wealth. Even if you have all the money in the world, including billions, if your health is not good, you have nothing. If you have money but lack good health, you cannot work. Over 100 people benefited from the programme”
He expressed appreciation to Pastor (Dr) Olagunju Abiodun Abioye, Pastor Okedare, Dr Seriki, Dr Adewale, Mr Bamidele, Dr Oyegbade, Daddy Ayinde, Mr Olajuwon and his boss, Mr Muyiwa Olojede, among others, for supporting the initiative.
He also acknowledged the contributions of Brother Sunkanmi, Mr Seye, Oyinmomo, Mr Tadese, Mrs Aminat Ajibola(Amiloaded), as well as his friends, colleagues and co-workers who supported the programme.
In his remarks, The lead doctor at the outreach and Consultant Family Physician, Dr Abiodun Abioye Olagunju, described the initiative as a commendable effort to give back to the community.
Olagunju said the programme provided an opportunity for beneficiaries to check their health status, receive medical counselling and undergo basic health tests, adding that some participants were advised to visit hospitals for further medical attention based on the outcomes of their assessments.
He also offered lifestyle advice to the beneficiaries, including eating properly, drinking adequate water and exercising regularly.
The physician urged members of the public to make regular health checks a priority, stressing that people should know their blood pressure, blood sugar and other relevant health indicators.
He encouraged people to use opportunities such as the free medical outreach to check their health status and seek professional medical attention when necessary.
One of the pastors of the celebrant, Pastor Ayinde Stephen Adepoju, said he was impressed by the turnout and the decision by Oyelade to use his birthday to impact lives.
Adepoju said the programme was particularly important because some people could be living with health conditions without knowing it, adding that the initiative provided an opportunity for participants to know their health status and take necessary precautions.
He commended Oyelade for investing resources and human effort into the programme, praying for continued blessings and success for the celebrant.
A beneficiary, Babajide Funmilola, appreciated Oyelade for providing the opportunity for members of the community to access the free medical test.
Another beneficiary, Taiwo Adepeju Oladipupo, described the initiative as a special programme, saying she was impressed that Oyelade chose to create an avenue for people to check their health while celebrating his birthday.
Also speaking, Olojede Muyiwa described the outreach as a service to humanity and urged people to pay greater attention to their health by going for regular medical checks.
