The War Against Chronic Disease Initiative (WACDI) has officially evolved into the Olujide Oyelade Chronic Disease Preventive Health Initiative (OOCDPHI). This strategic rebranding signifies an expanded vision and a growing influence for the organization across the African continent, redoubling its efforts to combat the pervasive threat of chronic diseases.

Building on a Legacy of Impact

Founded by the visionary Olujide Oyelade, OOCDPHI is set to build upon the impactful grassroots work established under the WACDI banner. Oyelade, a highly experienced health and safety professional, successful serial entrepreneur, and acclaimed author of "The 30 Years Secret" and "Unstoppable," has already made a profound impact. He has empowered thousands across Africa with crucial insights into preventive health, leadership, and financial independence. His leadership continues to inspire a new generation of changemakers, from his global advocacy for climate action to his dedication to youth education and community empowerment.

Expanding Scope and Reach for Healthier Communities

Now with a broader scope and enhanced reach, OOCDPHI is poised to significantly scale its community medical outreach programs, mobile health screenings, and school awareness tours. The initiative will also leverage data-driven advocacy to confront the escalating burden of chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and stroke.

Key to its expanded strategy are a monthly health calendar and a youth ambassador program. These initiatives are designed to ignite widespread preventive action and foster health awareness across both urban and rural communities throughout Africa.

New Leadership for a Renewed Mission

As part of this pivotal transition, OOCDPHI is proud to announce the appointment of Mrs. Olajumoke Esther Oluwayemi as its new Managing Director/CEO. A dedicated Community Health Practitioner, Mrs. Oluwayemi brings a fresh wave of energy and compassion to the organization's vital mission.

With a deep-seated passion for service and a proven track record in grassroots health work, Olajumoke embodies the spirit of OOCDPHI. "I harness my passion for serving humanity to drive positive change in the communities I serve," she affirmed. Her leadership is expected to be instrumental in guiding the initiative towards its ambitious goals.

Africa deserves better health outcomes, and the newly transformed OOCDPHI is ready to deliver on that promise—one village, one educational video, and one dedicated volunteer at a time.
