The health and well-being of public servants remain fundamental to the effectiveness of the public service, as a healthy workforce is better equipped to discharge its responsibilities with efficiency, commitment and sustained productivity.
The Ogun State Head of Service, Mr. Olanrewaju Saka, stated this at the flag-off of a diagnostic programme tagged “Know Your Health Status”, organised by the state government as part of activities commemorating the 2026 Public Service Day. The event was held at the Arcade Ground, Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta.
In a statement on Wednesday, Saka said the programme was designed to provide workers with an opportunity to prioritise their health through preventive care, health screening and early detection.
He encouraged public servants to take full advantage of the initiative, noting that timely health checks could facilitate the early identification of potential health challenges and enable appropriate measures to be taken to maintain healthy and productive lives.
