 DR. BAKARE APPOINTED ACTING MEDICAL DIRECTOR OF ORILE-AGEGE GENERAL HOSPITAL


The Lagos State Government has appointed Dr. Temitope Iyadunni Bakare as the new Acting Medical Director of Orile-Agege General Hospital (OAGH), in recognition of her outstanding contributions to healthcare administration, quality improvement, and system strengthening in Lagos State.


The appointment, approved by the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, took effect from May 18, 2026, in line with the administration’s commitment to reinvigorating the State’s policy implementation framework and enhancing service delivery within the public sector.


Dr. Bakare, a former Director of Clinical Services at the OAGH, is a seasoned public health physician, family dentist, healthcare strategist, and public administration expert, bringing over two decades of experience in healthcare service delivery and institutional leadership to her new role. 


Her appointment comes at a time when the Lagos State health sector continues to prioritise quality healthcare, innovation, workforce development, and improved patient outcomes in line with the THEMES+ Agenda and the Lagos State Development Plan (LSDP) 2052.


Before her recent appointment, Dr. Bakare played a pivotal role in the transformation of Orile-Agege General Hospital through strategic planning, quality improvement initiatives, policy development, and healthcare systems strengthening.


She was instrumental in the development of the hospital's Business Model and Positioning Strategy and contributed significantly to its 10-Year Strategic Plan (2016–2026), helping to position the institution as an emerging centre for clinical training and healthcare excellence.


An alumna of the Blavatnik School of Government and Pan-Atlantic University, Dr. Bakare has consistently demonstrated exceptional leadership in healthcare management. She is widely recognised for mentoring quality improvement programmes across several Lagos State General Hospitals and for championing innovations that enhanced service delivery and institutional performance.


Her contributions to healthcare policy development are equally notable. She was part of the think tank that developed the Lagos State Oral Health Policy in 2013 and contributed to the formulation of four additional state health policies, helping to shape healthcare delivery reforms across Lagos State.


Dr. Bakare's commitment to quality healthcare has yielded measurable results. Under her leadership in quality improvement initiatives, Orile-Agege General Hospital improved its SafeCare rating from Level 3 to Level 4, a feat that contributed to the hospital's recognition at the Nigerian Healthcare Excellence Awards (NHEA) in 2025.


Beyond institutional development, she has remained passionate about community health and social impact. She played a leading role in the hospital's community outreach programmes, including the "Back to School" initiative and the School Oral Health Programme, which provided oral health screening for students across public schools within the community. 


She also facilitated strategic partnerships that supported maternal and child health interventions, including a corporate social responsibility initiative that provides monthly nutritional support for pregnant women and children receiving care at the hospital.


Her efforts have earned her several awards and recognitions, including the OAGH Outstanding Leadership Award, the HSC Award for Impactful Service, the HSC Most Outstanding Quality Improvement Mentor Award, and the Lagos State Merit Award.


As she assumes office as the Acting Medical Director of OAGH, stakeholders within the health sector have expressed confidence in her ability to build on existing achievements and further position the Hospital as a model institution for quality healthcare delivery, innovation, clinical governance, training, and operational excellence.


Speaking on her vision for the hospital, Dr. Bakare reaffirmed her commitment to advancing healthcare excellence through quality improvement, workforce development, strategic partnerships, and sustainable health system strengthening. She emphasised the need to continually improve patient care outcomes while ensuring that the hospital remains responsive to the healthcare needs of the people.


Her appointment marks a new chapter in the growth and development of Orile-Agege General Hospital, with expectations high that her wealth of experience, strategic leadership, and passion for service will further strengthen the institution's role in delivering accessible, quality, and patient-centred healthcare to residents of Lagos State.
