He advised them to adhere strictly to all instructions and guidance given as they work toward becoming credible healthcare professionals.

In his closing remarks, Professor Akewushola wished them success in their academic journey and enjoined them to remain resilient, uphold good character, as well as shun all forms of immoral behaviour.
