President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Ijeoma Uchegbu, a Nigerian-born Professor of Pharmaceutical Nanoscience and top-tier researcher, on her election as President of Wolfson College, one of the University of Cambridge’s 31 colleges.
Professor Uchegbu is a Professor of Pharmaceutical Nanoscience at University College London (UCL) and is well-known for her groundbreaking work in nanoparticle medication delivery.
The President, according to a statement on Sunday by his spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, celebrated “the outstanding accomplishment and commends Professor Uchegbu for being an excellent ambassador for the country and for her relentless efforts to advance the frontiers of pharmaceutical science.”
He commended Dr. Uchegbu for “epitomizing the ingenuity, brilliance, and hard work that are consistently synonymous with the great Nigerian people both at home and abroad.”
While wishing the Nigerian-born Professor success in this important role, President Tinubu assured Nigerians in the Diaspora that his administration remains committed to building a robust interface mechanism that harnesses ideas, promotes investment opportunities, and strengthens bonds, in line with his “4D Foreign Policy.”
