PRESS STATEMENT: Abuja, Nigeria | 15 May, 2025 Congratulatory Statement from the Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare

On behalf of the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, I extend heartfelt congratulations to Professor Amaka Offiah on her well-deserved election as Vice-President, Clinical Radiology at the Royal College of Radiologists. 

This is a proud and inspiring moment for Nigeria, as one of our own continues to distinguish herself on the global stage. Professor Offiah’s achievement is a clear reflection of the excellence, resilience, and global relevance of Nigerian professionals in the diaspora. 

Her leadership in clinical radiology not only elevates the profile of Nigerians in global health but also offers a valuable bridge for further collaboration, knowledge transfer, and innovation between the UK and Nigeria. We are confident that her new role will open doors for strengthened academic and clinical ties that can contribute meaningfully to the ongoing transformation of our health sector. 

We celebrate Professor Offiah’s

accomplishment as a national asset, and we look forward to continued engagement with diaspora experts who share in the vision of building a healthier Nigeria.

Prof. Muhammad Ali Pate, CON

Coordinating Minister
