We are thrilled to announce that Professor Hadiza Shehu Galadanci has been awarded the prestigious title of "Innovator of the Year 2024" and her inclusion in the TIME magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the World in Health for 2024. This recognition stands as a testament to Professor Hadiza's groundbreaking contributions to the Health sector.

Professor Hadiza who is also the director of the Africa Center of Excellence for Population Health and Policy in Bayero University, Kano, has continually pushed the boundaries of knowledge and innovation in numerous projects. For this award, she has worked with a network of collaborators in other countries to implement and study a simple yet effective system for preventing fatal postpartum hemorrhages, one of the leading causes of maternal mortality. These efforts have not only enriched our academic community but have also had a profound impact on the medical field particularly the field of obstetrics and gynecology.

This honor highlights Professor Hadiza's dedication, creativity, and commitment to excellence. She symbolizes the spirit of innovation that defines our institution and inspire us all to reach new heights of discovery and achievement.
