The young promising lady was rushed to the University College Hospital (UCH), in Ibadan, Oyo State for a surgical operation. Unfortunately, she was pronounced dead after series of effort to save her.
Folashade Salako won the 2019 Shalina Young Talent Award (SYTA) where she was crowned as Nigeria’s “best Pharmacy brain”.

“If road traffic accidents were managed well, Folashade Salako best graduating student OAU Pharmacy School, winner of Shalina’s international Young Pharmacist Award wouldn’t have died this morning”.
