Bode Olanipekun SAN, one of the sons of legal luminary, Wole Olanipekun, alongside his wife, Tolu, has donated a state-of-the-art physiotherapy centre named after his father, Wole Olanipekun Physiotherapy Centre (WOPC) to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH).
Olanipekun described the centre as a gift of true giving, a legacy built not for applause but for healing and hope, a powerful example of altruism and commitment to societal well-being.
The physiotherapy centre stands as a tribute to legal icon and Pro-Chancellor of the University of Lagos, Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN) as well as to honour his lifelong dedication to law, education, service, and nation-building. The idea for the centre was conceived in February 2024, and it has since grown into what has been hailed as the finest physiotherapy facility in Nigeria and the West African sub-region, surpassing all expectations.
The three-storey building includes eight treatment cubicles, hydrotherapy pool, adult and paediatric gyms, VIP treatment rooms, intern and staff lounges, 60-seater seminar/training room, solar-powered backup system, and fire safety and universal accessibility features.
The older Olanipekun while lauding the project’s thoughtfulness and the positive impact it will have on countless lives said he is honoured by the gesture as the project is not just a building but a legacy of healing.
