What do you believe is the single most important factor driving up the cost of living in Nigeria?

Uloko made this statement on Wednesday while speaking to journalists during the opening ceremony of a three-day conference of endocrinologists, held at Conference Hotels, Abeokuta.

The 45th General Meeting and Scientific Conference, themed “Diabetes and Technology”, was held in Abeokuta in 2024.

He said, “The theme of the conference is informed by the fact that technology is gaining significant traction. We talk about artificial intelligence, robotics, and the use of machine aids in all our spheres of endeavour.

“This is particularly profound in the health sector, so as health experts who deal with endocrine diseases, a major part of non-communicable diseases, we felt we should use these three days to explore how we can deploy these new technologies to enhance the quality of care for our people.”

Uloko expressed hope that by the end of the conference, awareness of readily available technologies that could help care for diabetes and related illnesses would be raised.
