Private Sector Health Alliance of Nigeria (PSHAN) has signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) with Anchoria Asset Management (AAM) to provide lifesaving cancer screenings and education to underserved communities, especially Alimosho and Ikorodu local councils in Lagos.
While the Managing Director/CEO of PSHAN, Dr. Tinuola Akinbolagbe signed on behalf of PSHAN, the Managing Director of AAM signed on behalf AAM.
Speaking on the partnership, Akinbolagbe stated that PSHAN is driven by a vision to deliver equitable, accessible, and sustainable healthcare to every Nigerian. “This vision is embodied in our flagship initiative—the Adopt-A-Healthcare Facility Programme (ADHFP)—an initiative that aims to revitalise and upgrade primary healthcare centres across 774 local councils through private sector collaboration.
Today’s partnership with Anchoria aligns with this same spirit of proactive, people-centered healthcare delivery.”
She was optimistic that through the partnership, both parties will drive critical education and provide lifesaving cancer screenings to underserved communities, ensuring that hope and help reach those who need them the most. “We are not just signing a document today; we are making a commitment to save lives, restore dignity, and bring health equity closer to reality,” Akinbolagbe stated.
Also, Managing Director, Anchoria Asset Management, Folajimi Adeleye, said the partnership is an alliance that speaks not only to strategic collaboration, but also shared commitment to human wellbeing and social impact.
“At Anchoria, we believe that true wealth is not only measured by financial capital, but also by the health and vitality of the communities we serve.
We are intentional about creating meaningful change in the lives of the people we serve. This partnership with PSHAN reflects that commitment—our belief that corporate responsibility must include investing in the health and wellness of our communities.
“Together, we are launching an initiative focused on raising awareness about prostate and cervical cancer, and more importantly, offering free screening opportunities to 250 men and 250 women. Our goal is to reach and educate 50,000 people across Nigeria—helping them make informed decisions about their health and potentially saving lives through early detection and intervention.”
Similarly, Head, Memberships and Partnership, PSHAN, Muyiwa Olowoporoku, said the partnership will help to drive behavioural change campaign across the two local councils to create awareness about prostrate and cervical cancer to prevent unwanted outcome from not testing or detecting early.
