The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that SUNU Health Nigeria is a Health Maintenance Organisation (HMO), and a member of SUNU Group.

The 2024 International Women’s Day theme, ‘Inspire Inclusion‘,underscores the crucial role of inclusion in achieving gender equality and encourages everyone to recognise the unique perspectives and contributions of women.

Amidst a celebratory atmosphere at the company’s headquarters on Thursday in Lagos, the festivities were broadcast live across its branches, spanning various geopolitical zones in Nigeria.

Dr Patrick Korie, Managing Director of SUNU Health Nigeria, expressed his excitement in commemorating the annual occasion, highlighting the company’s steadfast commitment to promoting inclusivity—an enduring practice.

“We take pride in our diverse workforce, particularly the significant presence of women who play pivotal roles in shaping the healthcare landscape, delivering outstanding care, and propelling innovation forward.

“On this International Women’s Day, we celebrate their achievements and invaluable contributions,’’ he said.

Speaking also at the event, Dr Faith Nwachi, Chief Operating Officer, SUNU Health Nigeria, highlighted the company’s recognition of women’s critical role in healthcare.

“From doctors and nurses to administrators and researchers, their contributions are invaluable as they foster an inclusive environment that empowers women to thrive and reach their full potential.

“SUNU Health Nigeria’s investment in its female workforce has been instrumental in my own career growth.

“The company offers a variety of programmes and initiatives that empower women to advance their careers by equipping them with the necessary skills and resources to succeed,” she said.
