We are celebrating an Iconic Leader, Innovator, Entrepreneur and Mentor, The CEO of The Institute of Nursing Research, Nigeria.

Oluwadamilare Akingbade is the founding CEO of the Institute of Nursing Research, Nigeria, the leading research institute for registered nurses in Nigeria. 

The Institute of Nursing Research, Nigeria, is a household name in the Nigerian nursing academic ecosystem when it comes to matters regarding nursing research, academics, leadership and professional development. 

We have been at the forefront of nursing research and academics in Nigeria for over six years [and counting]. 

Our international conferences, career summits, partnerships, and community outreaches have impacted lives, families and communities. And our Journal Club is one of a kind–there’s no other like it in Nigeria. 

The Institute of Nursing Research, Nigeria, has one of the most diverse organisational teams of registered nurses with varied academic qualifications, interests and technical skills working at the background to drive the institute to enviable heights in the healthcare leadership and literary society in Nigeria and even across Africa. 

And we are excited once again to celebrate our Chief Executive Officer, Oluwadamilare Akingbade, as he adds another feather in his cap as a certified Global Nurse Consultant. 

“The Certified Global Nurse Consultant (CGNC) Program was designed in collaboration with the International Council of Nurses (ICN) to recognise expert nurses who seek to be recognised for their knowledge and experience.”

Certified Global Nurse Consultants are reliable sources of nursing expertise and knowledge accredited by the world’s apex professional credentialing body. 

CGNCs are senior professional nurses serving in various specialised roles as advanced clinicians, leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, administrators and beyond. 

These are exceptional nurses with solid, admirable track records in their various specialities–combining educational and professional achievements. This certification provides the ability to contribute to ICN initiatives directly and consult with governments, healthcare institutions, NGOs and other professional bodies that want to seek nursing perspectives, especially as regards the post-pandemic background and other issues that are of direct or indirect concern to nurses and the nursing profession. 

Oluwadamilare Akingbade is an inspiration, model and mentor to young nurses in Nigeria and abroad who desire to climb the academic and leadership ladder in the nursing profession. 

His deep and palpable passion for research, leadership, professional development and innovation has placed him among the upper echelons of young healthcare professionals in Nigeria and Africa, leading in the new world of healthcare leadership and innovation in Nigeria. 

To our dearest CEO, we believe this is just the beginning, and you are just warming up. 

From all of us at The Institute of Nursing Research, Nigeria, a big cheer to many more celebrations and achievements in the future.
