Axxela Boosts Ogun Community Healthcare with New Facility


Axxela’s Transit Gas Nigeria Limited has handed over a newly built and fully equipped primary healthcare facility to the Imodi-Ijasi community in the Odogbolu Local Government Area of Ogun State.

In a statement, the company said the gesture marked a major intervention aimed at addressing healthcare access challenges in the rural community.

The Commissioner for Health in Ogun State, Dr. Tomi Coker, was said to have led the state’s delegation to the event, describing the project as “timely and impactful.”

Coker said, “This project exemplifies the kind of strategic partnership we encourage between government and the private sector to achieve our universal health coverage goals. Beyond the physical infrastructure, Axxela’s commitment to sustainable social development aligns perfectly with our administration’s vision for a healthier Ogun State.”

The Managing Director of Axxela Gas Distribution, Kehinde Alabi, said the initiative reflected the company’s people-centred approach to social investment.

“Our CSR interventions are designed in close consultation with community stakeholders to understand their specific needs and ensure they serve the unique lifestyle requirements of the intended beneficiaries. With the completion and handover of the facility, we are confident that this centre will significantly ease the burden of accessing affordable, quality healthcare, particularly for women, children, and the elderly.

The statement added that the new health centre was equipped to offer maternal and child healthcare, outpatient services, and essential diagnostics.

Axxela said the project was part of its wider corporate social responsibility focus on healthcare, education, and community empowerment.
