President Bola Tinubu has named Dr. Ikye Orikpo as the new Chairman of the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital.

This was announced on Friday by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, in an official statement.

According to Onanuga, Dr. Orikpo, a native of Delta State, joins the roster of board chairpersons recently unveiled.

The presidential spokesperson also provided clarifications regarding the previously announced list of board chair appointments.

“Hon. Duro Meseko from Kogi state is the chairman of the Nigerian Building and Road Research Institute. What appears to be a duplication has been corrected,” the statement read.

“Also, Hon Yahaya Bello Wurno from Sokoto, not Ambassador Wurno, is the Chairman of Sokoto-Rima River Basin Development Authority.”
