🎓 It was graduation week at @LSTMnews. I am proud, happy and grateful to have been awarded a Master's of Public Health/International from one of the best #PublicHealth Universities in the world. #LSTMGrad23
@DrEmeruemJnr I was also thrilled to once again meet and talk with one of my favourite lecturers @sallytheobald and took the opportunity to thank her on behalf of the rest of the lecturers for the quality of their teaching and the support they provided during the programme.
At the graduation ceremony, I was delighted to meet one of the leaders in public health in #Africa and around the world who was awarded an Honorary Diploma for her exceptional contribution to public health. "Hold on to your strength", told us @DrEmeruemJnr. Inspirational.

I had an incredible week in #Lusaka#Zambia, attending #YPC2023 and #CPHIA2023. Participated in several sessions with fellow #PublicHealth professionals to explore ways of improving public health in #Africa through innovation, collaboration and evidence-based practice.
I can't express strongly enough how powerful the speech by H.E. Mrs. Monica Geingos, First Lady of the Republic of Namibia was at #YPC2023. So many amazing quotes but my favorite one was "Speaking truth has a cost even when you have power yourself". @KalondoMonica@FirstLadyNam

Un immense talent, une humilité exceptionnelle !
Ton intelligence, ton humour, ton sens du verbe et de l'observation vont manquer à beaucoup !
Vas briller à l'au-délà et continues de marquer de ton empreinte là où tu es comme t'as su bien le faire ici.
Yaga vient de perdre une de ses plus grandes plumes et un collègue chevronné 😞
