In a proactive move to ensure a safe and wellness-focused Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) Annual Conference, the Enugu State Government, through the Office of the Special Adviser to the Governor on Health Matters, Dr Yomi Jaye, has rolled out an extensive health, safety, and emergency preparedness plan for all participants.
From 24/7 medical teams and ambulance stations at strategic points to air ambulance retainerships for emergency evacuations, the arrangements underscore a deep commitment to safeguarding every attendee.
Key measures include
- Opening Day Health Briefing to guide participants on emergency access.
- Government House Clinic is the primary referral medical facility.
- Dedicated emergency hotline for immediate assistance.
- Two-day early morning wellness sessions at Okpara Square, complete with shuttle buses.
- Comprehensive environmental safety assessments to guarantee secure event spaces.
Dr. Jaye assured that the state’s readiness is unmatched, noting that “our goal is a successful, incident-free conference where participants feel safe, supported, and energized.”
With these preparations, Enugu is not only hosting the NBA Conference—it is setting a model for health-conscious event management in Nigeria.
