President Bola Tinubu has lauded the achievement of Nigerian-born, Dr Bolu Ogunyemi, a Clinical Associate Professor of Medicine at the Memorial University of Newfoundland, on his election as President of the Canadian Medical Association.
In a press statement released on Monday, Tinubu described Ogunyemi’s emergence as a “testament to visionary leadership, dedication to excellence, and compassionate commitment to enhancing the welfare of others.
The release was signed by the Special Adviser to the President on Information & Strategy.
The President celebrated this historic milestone, noting Ogunyemi’s remarkable contributions as a dermatologist based in St. John’s, Newfoundland, and his role as a visiting specialist in Labrador City since 2018.
Highlighting Ogunyemi’s extensive background and 15 years of leadership experience, Tinubu expressed confidence in his ability to lead the CMA to greater heights once his election is confirmed at the association’s Annual General Meeting in May 2025.
