The Royal Professor Episode

Banana Island Living Podcasts

Oct 6 2022 • 1 hr

The third in our series of conversations with people 75 years and over, our conversation with the royal professor could not have come at a better time - a week after Queen Elizabeth's passing.

We speak with Emeritus Professor Osato Frank Giwa-Osagie, Cambridge educated obstetrician-gynaecologist and educator. Professor Giwa-Osagie is a recipient of the Adrian Stokes Memorial award from Guys Hospital Medical School, London, 1975, Chevalier du Lion, Republic of Senegal, Dakar, and a truly worthy person to walk us through the story of medical practice in Nigeria - the peaks, the troughs, and the bits in between.


In this episode, we talk about:

  • The bucket list.
  • The old school tie (if you know you know).
  • The real (Benin people's version) story of the sacking of the Benin Kingdom.
  • The King (Charles) and I
  • What Princess Diana said
  • Being controversial and hanging the consequences - it's the age privilege thing.

and then - the joke - the medical (ever so slightly smutty) joke.

This episode will get you hitting the clubs - if it works so well for Prof.....
