Peter Obi Applauds As Cambridge Varsity College Appoints Nigerian Professor As President

Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), has commended Professor Ijeoma Uchegbu on her appointment as the President of Wolfson College at the University of Cambridge.

Obi said in a series of postings made on Monday under his X handle that the Nigerian professor is well-known throughout the world for her very intelligent and influential contributions to STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics).

With her position, Obi hopes to produce a generation of driven researchers who will push the boundaries of science, medicine, and global health. He also hopes she will have more worldwide influence.

Additionally, Uchegbu was asked to keep supporting Nigeria’s development, particularly in the areas of health and education, by the former governor of Anambra State.

He wrote, “I wish to joyfully congratulate Ijeoma Uchegbu, a Nigerian and Professor of Pharmaceutical Nanoscience, celebrated for her exceptional work in nanoparticle drug delivery, who has just been announced as the 7th President of Wolfson College, one of the 31 colleges of the University of Cambridge.

“Prof. Uchegbu, currently a lecturer at University College London, is also globally celebrated for her high intellectual and global works in  Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), which have won her numerous awards, fellowships, and accolades as she continues to trail the blaze in pharmaceutical nanoscience.

“Her innovative breakthrough and academic excellence, reborn out of years of dedication and hard work, have not only led to the development of new treatments that promise to transform pain relief but have also paved the way for deeper research in pharmaceutical science for the improvement of health – a very critical index of human development. As she boldly steps into her new position next year, I wish her more all-around success.”
