[Obafemi O. Ogunleye @TheObafemi]

I responded to their call by writing a policy brief that addresses the higher education context in Nigeria with a focus on the associated challenges and opportunities of the Africa Center of Excellence Project.

A truly visionary leader.

[ACEGID @acegid_igh]

Here is a 2014 quote from @christian_happi.

We are glad that @acegid and other laboratories have been performing deep sequencing of SARS-CoV-2 here on African soil since 2020.

[Obafemi O. Ogunleye @TheObafemi]

A great article on African centers of excellence claiming that universities should "dare to be different". By daring to be different, Dr. Salmi says that "leaders must avoid the danger of imitating other universities – they must remember that their institutions are unique".

[Africa Higher Ed. Centers of Excellence-ACE Impact @the_ACEProject]

Requirements to accelerate world-class African universities

The road to academic excellence involves Vice Chancellors constantly challenging themselves and their teams – and continuously seeking to renew their institutions to keep improving.
