On the surface it may come as a good news that such a well respected Nigerian professional like Professor Dora Akunyili is a ministerial nominee. Yet there are fears me (and some others) have for her, that she is more of a professional than a politician and may end up having her good image tarnished through rubbing shoulders with corrupt politicians. In short, there is this view by some that Dora is too clean to serve in this government; that she should have remained known as a no-nonsense professional figure fighting illegal health and food products in the society. So what is your opinion on this plung that Professor Dora Akunyili appears set to take into politics?

nawoo

Madam Dora is a bloddy politician don't be fooled

@Ribadufan, I would like you to expaciate on WHY there can't be a better part?

@Samorijack, the issue is not whether she is a politician; I have not dabbled into whether Madam is a politician or not; it's about the question of whether she is more useful to the nation -and to herself too, in governemnt than in NAFDAC (and I now add, whether NAFDAC has faired better after her exit).
