President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Bolu Ogunyemi, a clinical associate professor of Medicine at the Memorial University of Newfoundland, on his recent election as president of the Canadian Medical Association.
The president made the commendation on Monday in a statement by Bayo Onanuga, his spokesman.

“This esteemed recognition is a testament to Mr Ogunyemi’s visionary leadership, dedication to excellence, and compassionate commitment to enhancing the welfare of others,” said the statement.
