Aisha Mustapha: Someone whom I admire a lot

Aisha Mustapha, Senior Lecturer at Ahmadu Bello University, shared on X:

“Her Excellency, Zainab Shinkafi Bagudu is someone I admire a lot.

Aside being:

Founder, MedicAid Cancer Foundation (MCF).
Chair, First Ladies Against Cancer (FLAC).
Board Director, Union for International Cancer Control (UICC).
Chair, Finance Governance Committee, National Cancer Control Program (NCCP).
Chair, Knowledge Advocacy and Policy Committee, UICC.
Member Steering Committee for Cancer Health Fund (CHF).
Two-term First Lady, Kebbi State Nigeria.

She is also:

A global cancer advocate.
An expert on policy formulation, influencing and implementation.
A healthcare financing strategist.
A research-to-policy champion.
An Ambassador, World Ovarian Cancer Coalition (WOCC).

Yet her humility, enthusiasm and passion to improving indices across the entire cancer care continuum is second to none.

Was privileged to be with her on a panel discussion on eliminating cervical cancer in Nigeria.”
