TRIBUTE BY AKINWUNMI IBRAHIM: Remembering Dora Akunyili, a beautiful soul that made Nigeria proud | TheCable
ShareEvery 7th day of June always resonates with the Edemobis and Akunyilis, and perhaps, the Nigerian people.
The late Prof. Akunyili embodied so many fine characteristics during her service years as the former director-general of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control and minister of information and communications.One of her antecedents is opening the can of truth during the most daring and challenging times of our country when a cabal had held us ransom all in the name of majority rule.
Without a doubt, Dora is one of the brightest stars of our time. She is an amazon whose strength can never be compared. All offices that felt her touch exuded excellence given to her optimal performance even when the country was nose-diving.The same esprit de corps of excellence is what her six beautiful children exemplify, making them shine in the white man’s land and within the shores of our great country.
