The visit to Ogbodo came barely five months after Queen Juliet’s coronation as Miss Health South-South, since her corona¬tion, she and her team, have visited various parts of the South-South region, to sensitize the people on how to live a healthy life, as well as treat those faced with various health challenges.
It was in the course of her tour of towns and communities in the South-South region that she first came to Ogbodo where she found out that so many people in that community, particularly the aged ones, were afflicted with various types of eye diseases.
Ogbodo Community is a community filled with several eye diseases.
