As part of the activities lined up to celebrate the 80th birthday of the Presiding Bishop of TREM, Dr Mike Okonkwo, Nigerians with clouding of the eye’s natural lens which can significantly impair vision like cataract will be screened and operated upon at the Eye Foundation Ikorodu, Lagos.
To be screened, potential beneficiaries will be expected to pick up the registration form at TREM International headquarters, Obanikoro, Lagos and in all TREM branches in Lagos or fill the form online.
This compassionate approach aligns with Bishop Mike Okonkwo’s commitment to contribute towards community well-being and human development.
