At a health and wellness lecture in Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta, the Head of Operations at the Ogun State Emergency Medical Services and Ambulance System, Dr Festus Adetonwa, said public servants face pressures from deadlines, staff deployment, limited resources and public expectations. He warned that unmanaged stress and poor work-life balance can contribute to hypertension, diabetes, obesity, insomnia, chronic pain and other health conditions. Workers were encouraged to get regular medical check-ups, sleep adequately, exercise, eat healthily and take movement breaks during office hours.
