On behalf of the WISCAR Board and Management, Oyagbola thanked Ogunmekan for her leadership, hard work and devotion to WISCAR and the cause of women development, wishing her the very best in her future endeavours as she moves on from the helm of affairs while remaining a WISCAR Ambassador and an active member of the WISCAR community.
