Why You Should Not Miss It
This induction ceremony marks the official transition of the Ad Astra Class into the professional world of physiotherapy. It is also shaping up to be one of the most prestigious events of the year not just in Physiotherapy, but the School of Basic Medical Sciences.
Also, you donβt want to miss the uplifting academic and political recognition. We wonder the prize the Best Graduating Student (BGS) would get. Would they beat the Department of Nursing?
In addition, you donβt want to miss the after celebration: music, dance, and above all, jollof rice and drinks. ππ
