"Every African has the right to access quality care. I reject the ideology that we call poor medicine for poor people, which keeps us in a vicious cycle, and it is you as young researchers who will generate the evidence-based research that will help us." ~ @LukoyeAtwoli

"This year’s event is especially significant because it marks five years of the AKU Early-Career Health Researchers Symposium. It has been five years of embracing research as the cornerstone of healthcare knowledge @akusonamea " #AKUResearchDay ~@AMSarki in his opening remarks

"Nurses & midwives continue to be at the forefront of the battle against COVID-19. As primary users, healthcare innovations affect them first. That's why the theme of "Strengthening healthcare systems through innovation, technology and evidence-based practice" is key" ~@AMSarki

"I call on participants to think critically & creatively on how we can jointly, as members of the healthcare team, deal with several challenges within the realities of our healthcare system to make Sustainable Development Goals and Universal Health Coverage a reality." ~@AMSarki
