Obey the Council policies - MLSCN CEO to the Head of Medical Laboratory programs

-
The Registrar/CEO, Prof Tosan Erhabor today, charged Medical Laboratory Scientists to live above board by obeying the polices of the Council for the good of the profession. 
Addressing a meeting of Heads of Medical Laboratory Science programs in Colleges and Schools of Health Technology and the Management of the Council, in Abuja, the Registrar warned the institutions that attendance to quarterly meetings with the Council was mandatory and any institution not represented would be blacklisted. “If you’re not interested in meeting with or interacting with us, how would you know what is going on? Therefore, if you are not willing to work with us as a family, we would have no option than to equally keep you at arm’s length,” he said. 
The Registrar also frowned at professionals who are pursuing partisan or personal interests by covertly perpetuating the polarization of the Association of Medical Laboratory Scientists of Nigeria (AMLSN). "This must stop! The gladiators must sheath their swords for the greater good of the profession entrusted in our care by those who came before us. We owe it a duty to protect it, so that those coming behind us can also have a profession to call their own,” he added.

Madam Efunroye Tinubu

-
Born in the Egbaland of the Yoruba people of West Africa at the beginning of the nineteenth century, Tinubu learned commerce from her grandmother, a successful trader. As a young woman Tinubu married a local man and bore him two sons, but she was widowed following the family’s migration to the town of Abeokuta in 1830. Shortly afterward she met Adele, a deposed king of Lagos, married him, and moved with her new husband and sons to the coastal town of Badagry, where Adele was temporarily recognized as ruler. Tinubu arrived in Badagry at a time when the then illegal Atlantic slave trade was peaking on the eastern Slave Coast. Although her sons soon died, she used two slaves, allegedly a gift from her father, to trade between Abeokuta and the coast in slaves and other commodities. Never again blessed with children, she invested her growing income from trade in slaves and other retainers, beginning the process of amassing personal followers and expanding her commercial operations.
