DNK Foundation Pays Hospital Bills Of Poor Patients On Anniversary
DNK Foundation, an organisation established in memory of Dr. Oyenike Komolafe has decided to mark its third anniversary with the payment of bills of patients who have been detained in the hospital due to debts incurred during the course of their treatment.
Speaking shortly after visiting three Lagos hospitals: Isolo General Hospital, Gbagada General Hospital and Island Maternity, Lagos, Mr. Kunle Komolafe, brother of Dr. Oyenike and spokesperson of the foundation noted that the organisation decided to embark on this intervention because their late sister was a passionate medical doctor.
According to him, DNK Foundation was started by the family in 2019 shortly after Dr Oyenike’s death in 2018 in order to keep her memory alive.
“Our current goal is to put smiles on the faces of some of these poor patients who have been detained at the hospital for indebtedness.
“You will not believe some of these people have been kept there for years, so we intend to visit these hospitals and clear these debts and touch as many people as we could with the little funds that we have earmarked for the purpose”
Mr Komolafe who is Chief Executive Officer of the famous security company, KSquare noted that though the family had been doing this privately, it decided to make this year’s anniversary commemoration, a media event to create an opportunity for others to support this worthy cause and help increase the impact.

“Since the Foundation is managed only by siblings, there is cap to our funding but we decided to open this up to the public so that others who are moved by the objectives of DNK Foundation can join us and ensure we expand our reach and help more people.
“We do not mind if this activity can happen every week, day and month and if we become very big we can actually go into building hospitals and purchase of hospital equipment.
He revealed that a team that includes the hospital management had been given the responsibility of drawing up a list of beneficiaries, while the DNK Board will take the final decision.
