The Aliko Dangote Foundation (ADF) has provided an ambulance to Mainland Hospital in Yaba, Lagos, bolstering its capacity to manage infectious disease outbreaks and enhance emergency response.

For over a decade, Mainland Hospital operated without a functional ambulance, which was a limitation that severely affected the speed and quality of patient referrals and emergency evacuations.

This newly donated ambulance now serves as a game changer, enabling swift mobility for critical cases and improving the hospital’s overall efficiency in disease outbreak responses.

The Aliko Dangote Foundation has long been at the forefront of major health interventions in Nigeria, from combating malnutrition and polio to supporting disease control during pandemics. This gesture to Mainland Hospital is one of many strategic moves reflecting its broader mission to strengthen Nigeria’s healthcare infrastructure.

During an address on Friday, the MD/CEO of the hospital emphasized how crucial the donation was, describing patient mobility as a longstanding challenge.

He noted, “Today we received an ambulance from Aliko Dangote Foundation to support our response activities in Lagos. Aliko Dangote Foundation has taken care of our biggest headache; in fact, it is a game changer for us, so we can do a lot of things now that we can’t do before.”

He further acknowledged the impact of private sector support, particularly expressing appreciation to Mr. Aliko Dangote for addressing a decade-long need.

“We are really grateful, and our sincere gratitude goes to Mr Aliko Dangote. We lacked an ambulance for about 10 years, but now we have one we can boast of thanks to Mr Aliko Dangote. Thank you very much.”

In his remarks, the Director of Health and Nutrition for the Aliko Dangote Foundation (ADF), Dr. Francis Aminu, reiterated the foundation’s unwavering dedication to improving the lives of Nigerians, particularly in the health sector.

According to him, “We are happy to help. The foundation is there to assist, especially in areas of health. They say health is wealth, so the foundation is there to fill the gaps found and through this donation initiative, this is us (ADF) showing our commitment to ensuring those needs are met.”

As Dr. Aminu puts it, “What we do at ADF isn’t just charity, it’s a duty. We believe that every Nigerian life is valuable, and health is the foundation on which all other aspirations are built; no Nigerian should be left behind due to a lack of access to essential health resources.”

“This isn’t a one-time effort; we are committed to building systems that last, ones that Nigerians can rely on even in the toughest of times.”

The Aliko Dangote Foundation continues to stand as a beacon of hope, driven by its commitment to ensuring a healthier, stronger Nigeria, one donation, one intervention, and one life at a time.
