Established in 2014, the University of Medical Sciences in Ondo City, Ondo state (UNIMED) is the brainchild of former Governor of Ondo state, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko. It is the first specialized medical university in West Africa and third in Africa, according to Late Emeritus Professor Oladipo O. Akinkugbe, the University’s Pioneer Pro-Chancellor and Chairman of Governing Council. The vision was to support Nigeria’s quest for high quality education, service delivery, research and innovation in the field of medical sciences.
It is worthy of commendation that Mimiko’s successor, Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, inspite of political and ideological differences, carried on with the vision of the founding fathers of this nestling but pace-making university that has come to stay and reaching out for the stars.
