The Special Adviser to Kwara State Governor on Healthcare, Prof. Wale Sulaiman, has resigned from the position.
Sulaiman, who resigned from the position on Wednesday, said he would be going into private business.
He said: “My passion in life is to create opportunities where there are none and to give hope to the underprivileged, using my skills, expertise, and professional network.
