Dr. Lateefat Oyeleye Abiola, a former student of Osun State University has emerged best graduating medical student at V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University in Ukraine.

Abiola was sponsored to the Ukrainian university by the government of Governor Rauf Aregbesola, to complete her studies.

She scored 95.6 per cent to emerge the best.

Lateefat was one of the 85 medical students of the Osun State University, UNIOSUN, left stranded and unable to complete their studies after the National Universities Commission in 2012 refused to accredit the course for lack of a medical school.

However, in 2014, when Governor Rauf Aregbesola came on board, he decided to fully sponsor the 85 students that belonged to two different sets, to complete their Medical studies at the Kharkiv National University, Ukraine.

The convocation ceremony was attended by UNIOSUN vice-chancellor, Professor Labo Popoola.
