Dr. Ajibade currently hosts and presents a weekly TV show entitled: Your Health in Your Hands, an innovative show focused on educating the Nigerian public on health matters of special importance to people of African, specifically Black African origin. This 30-minute segment, which is the third most viewed show on Africa’s largest television network highlights issues affecting Africans and Nigerians in particular, including mental health/brain disorders, cardiovascular concerns (e.g. hypertension), and cancer, and is viewed at least five times a week by millions both within and outside the country.
