He made the call when he visited the newly appointed Vice-Chancellor, Professor Lilian Salami, urging her to deliver excellence as one of the few women in leadership positions in the country who Nigerians look up to for exemplary leadership.
Adewolu, who was accompanied by the Chief Medical Director of UBTH, Professor Darlington Obaseki and another top management team of the hospital, expressed hope that Salami’s administration would be of great benefit to both institutions in building the required synergy.
While pledging UBTH’s support and commitment in collaboration, Adewolu said UNIBEN and UBTH were partners in medical research and training.
