ABOUT
EIRENE FOUNDATION

The Eirene Foundation was established by Dr. Nnamdi Joseph Obike and his wife, Dr. Uche Peace Okorji-Obike. Their shared passion for healthcare, empowering the vulnerable, and promoting education, played a significant role in bringing them together. This shared commitment resonated deeply with them, and they had often discussed taking action to address this calling in their hearts. In the current year, they recognized the urgent need to step out of their comfort zones and initiate their journey.

​

Dr. Nnamdi received his medical training at the University of Port Harcourt in Nigeria. He is a highly skilled medical doctor with eleven years of clinical practice experience in both Nigeria and the United Kingdom. His approach to patient care is centered around prioritizing the well-being and concerns of patients. Dr. Nnamdi has actively volunteered in numerous medical outreach programs, providing free medical care to those in need, following the completion of his medical training. He is enthusiastic about giving back through the foundation.
