Dr Hassanatu Kanu was certified as the best-graduating student from the College of Medicine and Allied Health Sciences (COMAHS) for the 2024 academic year.
Dr Kanu received several awards in anatomy, biochemistry, pharmacology, pathology, ob-gyn, surgery, medicine and dissertation —making her the overall best student for 2024.
“I feel happy and proud because I made my family and friends proud,” the young graduate said. “I know that a lot of people will be proud of this achievement so I feel happy.”
Before enrolling to study at COMAHS, Kanu served as Head Girl at Annie Walsh Memorial School, the oldest and one of the best girls’ secondary schools in Sierra Leone. She left the school after passing her WASSCE with excellent grades to pursue her dream of becoming a doctor.
“Everything is difficult before they become easy. It takes consistency, self-discipline and perseverance to achieve your dream,” she said.
She concluded by promising to serve the nation as a doctor whenever called upon.
Similar to Dr Kanu, Vivia Kamara also won the best-graduating pharmacist for 2024.
Other students of the institution also received their degrees and oaths to serve as medical practitioners in the country.
