Speaking at the university's College of Engineering convocation, Dosunmu-Ogunbi, a daughter of Nigerian immigrants, spoke on the support she received in realising her aspirations. She said, "I do not stand here on my own two feet alone. None of us got here by our individual merit alone, whether it be teacher, friends, family, mentors, or role models, we each have one or multiple people to whom we are grateful for making this moment possible." She added that she wants to be remembered as the University of Michigan's first black woman to get a PhD in Robotics and she wants to use her knowledge in engineering to improve the lives of others.

Mr Anikoh Ibrahim,the State Coordinator of National Agency For Food And Drugs {NAFDAC},disclosed this today wednesday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria {NAN} in Minna.He said the action was taken during an unscheduled visit to the bakery.Ibrahim said that the agency would continue to sensitise master bakers in the state on the danger of using substances like that for edibles.He said ''We have started inspection and sensitization visits to bakeries in Niger State,particularly those in the rural areas.When consumers see such bread in the market,they will be attracted to buy it because it is swollen owing to the patassium bromide content.Bromide causes cancer.So,we tell producers not to include it in the process of making food or edibles.Such substances are not good for our body''.He further said that the closed bakery would be reopened for business after the payment of the stipulated fine by the agency as well as proper registration renewal.
