CMUL Annual Meeting 2008

Held on 5/24/08 at Stone Mountain Resort in Georgia

The meeting was called to order at 2:05 pm on 5/24/08 by the Interim Secretary of the association Dr. F Bassey-Akamune. This was followed by a welcome address by the representative of the Georgia chapter of the Alumni association Dr. Ajayi. He thanked everyone for coming especially Dr. Akin Awujo who put the program together. The venue was at the beautiful Marriott Stone Mountain resort in Georgia with provision of CME Lecture and activities for the children and spouses. Dr. Ajayi noted the history of the College of Medicine University of Lagos, the campus, and the great vision of our founding fathers. He noted that JFK once said, “ Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.” He then thanked those who traveled from out of state and challenged those present to continue with their mission with clear cut vision to reestablish Idiaraba as a great campus. He reminisced on the subsidized meals on campus. He charged us to make a difference and believes that we can. He noted that a book drive was done and urged more alumni to attend the meetings annually and enjoy the venue with their family- the fireworks display, golf, fishing, and shopping at the resort.
