Adeniji Mustapha: ​​Advocacy for Health Doesn’t Require a License

Adeniji Mustapha, Medical Student at Osun State University, shared on LinkedIn:

”Why wait for a white coat to make a difference?

​As a 3rd-year medical student,

I’ve realized that the most important lessons aren’t always found in the classroom they are found in our communities.

​I founded STROKEGUARD NG because I saw a gap that couldn’t wait for my graduation.

Stroke doesn’t wait for us to finish our degrees, and hypertension the ‘Silent Killer’ doesn’t take a break while we study for exams.

​The Mission is Simple:
​We are on a journey to eliminate stroke through awareness and early intervention.

Whether it’s public speaking or encouraging a neighbor to check their numbers, every conversation is a life potentially saved.

​The Lesson:
​You don’t need a license to advocate for health. You just need a mission and the willingness to show up.

Stay tuned to be updated on my upcoming lecture/awareness on stroke in the coming days.

​To my fellow medical students and young professionals: What’s one cause in your field that you’re passionate about starting now?”
