The Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research, Innovation & Strategic Partnership) at the University of Ibadan, Prof. Olanike Adeyemo, has commended Africa 2050 team for its laudable projects across the continent.
Speaking at a briefing yesterday, Adeyemo lauded Africa 2050 for its impactful work across universities in Africa. “I can tell you categorically that University of Ibadan is happy to host Africa 2050 to an upcoming summit in June 15, at the Senate Chamber of the university.”
