WATCH: Chika Oriuwa Valedictorian Speech, U of T Faculty of Medicine

Congratulations to Dr. Chika Oriuwa who made history as the second Black female valedictorian at the University of Toronto (U of T) Faculty of Medicine.

The first generation Nigerian Canadian was the only Black medical student in her 2016 class of 259 people.

Congratulations! Your voice, your talents, and your passion are needed now more than ever. Enjoy this moment – and all the best to you and your fellow @UofTMedicine graduates in the years to come. This is only the beginning of an incredible journey, I’m sure. #UofTGrad20 https://t.co/QCTKi5Ci2v
