13 July 2026, Lagos, Nigeria. — inDrive, a global mobility and urban services platform, has taken a bold step in advancing driver welfare by providing healthcare coverage for 500 drivers and their families through a partnership with Heala.
This partnership signals a shift toward more accessible, technology-driven healthcare that meets people where they are. Beyond supporting the drivers directly, there is an inclusion of family coverage, which provides an added layer of reassurance, preventing the drivers from being preoccupied with concerns about how their loved ones would access care
Through Heala’s platform, drivers and their families can access medical support without the need to first visit the hospital, reducing the time and inconvenience often associated with seeking care. By bringing healthcare closer to drivers and fitting it into their daily routines, Heala is helping ensure that staying healthy does not come at the expense of earning a living.
Commenting on the initiative, Country Manager, inDrive Nigeria, Timothy Oladimeji, noted that the initiative aligns with inDrive’s broader mission of challenging injustice by addressing one of the everyday challenges faced by drivers.
Oladimeji added that by reducing barriers to healthcare access, the company is helping drivers remain healthy, productive, and better able to support their families.
“At inDrive, our drivers are at the heart of everything we do. We recognise that long hours on the road can make it difficult to prioritise personal health, yet their wellbeing is essential to their livelihoods and the communities they serve. Through our partnership with Heala, we are providing access to healthcare for 500 drivers and their families, giving them greater peace of mind and ensuring they can access medical support when they need it. This initiative reflects our commitment to building a fairer and more supportive mobility ecosystem where drivers are empowered not only economically but also through initiatives that improve their quality of life,” he said.
Anderson Oriahi, CEO/Co-founder of Heala, added, “Through our partnership with inDrive, we are bringing healthcare closer to the people who keep cities moving every day. Drivers often work long hours and rarely have the time to navigate traditional healthcare systems.”
By extending healthcare coverage to hundreds of drivers, inDrive is demonstrating what responsible corporate leadership can look like in practice. The partnership with Heala enables the beneficiaries to access healthcare services more easily, helping them stay healthy, productive and better equipped.
Beyond its immediate impact, the initiative sends a powerful message about the future of driver support. As businesses increasingly explore ways to create meaningful value for their stakeholders, inDrive’s investment in healthcare stands as an example of how organisations can make a measurable difference in people’s lives.
