“From the mistake of the foolish, the wise learn their lessons. So learn accordingly,” he cautioned.

While congratulating the university for graduating its first set of students, Dr Erhabor said the strides made would boost the profile of the programme. 

Represented by Prof. Olayanju Dickson, he advocated for the training of more personnel in the health sector to meet the needs of the nation.

In his address, the vice-chancellor of the institution, Prof. Noah Yusuf, said the induction ceremony was an important event and contribution to the country’s medical sector.

He charged the newly qualified medical laboratory scientists to make the university proud wherever they may be by avoiding quackery and sharp practices and to take their oath as binding them to professional conduct.
