Expressing her profound gratitude to her colleagues for the confidence reposed in her again, Adesina pledged her commitment and that of her team to do more for the group than ever before.
While they will continue with the seven agenda already in existence, she noted that they will be engaging more with young pharmacists and retirees among them, by organising season programmes that will cater for the welfare and professional excellence.
She specially appreciated all the past chairpersons of the association in attendance at the BGM including Chief (Mrs) Yetunde Morohundiya: Pharm.(Mrs) Bolanle Adeniran: Pharm (Dr) Modupe Alli; Pharm. (Dr) Margaret Obono and Pharm. (Dr) Modupe Ologunagba, for their continuous support to the group.
Commending the previous executives for their impactful programmes in healthcare delivery in the state, the PSN Chairman, Lagos State, Pharm. Babayemi Oyekunle, urged them to continue reaching out to the underserved with health awareness programmes, for the maintenance of good health.
He also assured them that their demand for the implementation of Consultancy Cadre is settled, as he was able to present the request personally to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, at the last meeting they had, which yielded a positive outcome.
“As an aborigine, I had the privilege of meeting the governor one on one when he came for the commissioning of the road leading to our secretariat, and I discussed the issues on ground with him. He gave me the assurance that all our Demands will be met soon”, he revealed.
In her contribution, the Vice-Chairman, Lagos PSN, Pharm. (Dr) Shakirat Adeosun, congratulated ALPs chairman for the beautiful works she and her executives have done in the last two years, imploring all members to contribute their quota to the progress of the association.
