Dr Adedolapo Fasawe, Mandate Secretary, Health Services and Environment Secretariat, Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), has received three recognitions for her impactful contributions in health, environment and climate action.
Mrs Bola Ajao, Special Assistant to the Mandate Secretary on Media, disclosed this in a statement in Abuja on Friday.
Ajao described Fasawe’s recognition for her dedication to public service as simply “remarkable”.
She said that the mandate Secretary received three major awards in one month for her outstanding work in healthcare delivery, environmental protection, and climate advocacy.
She said that the first award came during the Annual Conference of the Pest Control Association of Nigeria, held at Radisson Blu in Lagos.
She explained that Fasawe was named the “Amazon of Environmental Health,” at the event, a title reserved for leaders making major strides in environmental health and pest control.
“She was later presented with the “Silent Hero in Healthcare Delivery” award at the 7th edition of the Nigeria Silent Heroes Awards (NSHA) in Abuja.
“The award recognised her impactful but quiet leadership in improving healthcare systems and policies across the FCT.
“The third honour came from her alma mater, the University of Ife (now Obafemi Awolowo University), Osun State, where she received an Award of Excellence in Climate Action during the 2025 International Conference of the Faculty of Social Sciences.
“The three-day event with the theme, “Accelerating Climate Action for Sustainable Livelihoods in Nigeria,” highlighted her efforts in integrating climate-focused strategies into public health and governance,” she said.
She said that dignitaries at the event commended Fasawe’s visible contributions in promoting climate action and celebrated her as a proud ambassador of the university.
“A special reception was later held in her honour by her former classmates,” she said.
Ajao said that the recognitions reflect Fasawe’s consistent record of service, leadership, and commitment to both people and the environment.
She added that Fasawe’s achievements have continued to inspire action toward sustainable development in Nigeria.
Responding, Fasawe attributed her successes to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike’s doggedness in advancing the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu.
She equally thanked Wike for creating an enabling environment that allows all the Mandate Secretaries in the FCT Administration to explore their potential and deliver the dividends of democracy to FCT residents.
