The day’s events include a free medical outreach and a football skills challenge for children, aimed at uplifting the local community.
The day will begin with a Medical Outreach from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., offering essential healthcare services to Ajegunle residents. Local doctors, nurses, and volunteers will provide free consultations, blood pressure and diabetes screenings, and general health advice, ensuring that vital services are accessible to the community.
Coker’s initiative reflects his commitment to improving lives beyond the football field. He has often emphasized the importance of health in overall community development, and this outreach is his way of giving back to the community he cherishes.
In the afternoon, the celebrations will continue with a U10 Football Skills Challenge from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., inviting young players from the area to showcase their talents. The skills challenge, designed for children under 10, will test their dribbling, passing, and shooting abilities in a friendly competition.
This event provides a platform for young players to experience the joy of the sport, boost their confidence, and possibly catch the attention of local scouts. Coker, a long-time advocate for youth sports development, hopes to inspire the next generation of football stars through this event, showing that football can be a path to a brighter future.
Coker’s 60th birthday celebration is a testament to his character and values, placing the needs and dreams of his community at the heart of the event. “Giving back is the best gift,” he says.
By choosing to celebrate in this way, he is using his birthday to inspire positive change, fostering health, joy, and opportunity for the people of Ajegunle. Local residents are encouraged to join this special day that promises both fun and meaningful support for all.
