ONE OF THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS REGULATORY BODIES IN NIGERIA IS THE PHARMACISTS COUNCIL OF NIGERIA.

IT IS THE BODY EMPOWERED WITH THE REGULATION OF PHARMACY AS A PROFESSION IN NIGERIA.

LATELY, THE DEVIL HAS CREPT IN.

THE AUGUST BODY IS NOW INFESTED WITH VERMIN IN THE NAME OF AGENTS AND OFFICIALS WHO HAVE VESTED THEMSELVES WITH THE JOB OF WITCH-HUNTING THEIR PERCEIVED ENEMIES IN THE NAME OF REGULATION.

AS A JOURNALIST, I HEARD AND INVESTIGATED THE STORY OF A PARTICULAR MAN, PHARMACIST JACOB OLAYEMI, AND WAS MOVED TO TEARS.

HE IS RESIDENT IN IPETUMODU TOWN, IFE NORTH LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA, OSUN STATE.

THE MAN IS ELDERLY, IN HIS 60s, AND HE HAS BEEN A PRACTISING PHARMACIST FOR ABOUT 35 YEARS.

ABOUT 31 YEARS AGO, THE MAN WAS INVITED BY THE TRADITIONAL RULER OF THE TOWN TO ESTABLISH A PHARMACY THERE, PURELY TO CATER FOR THE NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE.

HE COULD HAVE SOUGHT BETTER EMPLOYMENT IN A MORE MODERN ENVIRONMENT.

IPETUMODU IS A SMALL TOWN.

BUT HE STAYED TO HELP THE PEOPLE.

HOWEVER, IN JANUARY OR FEBRUARY 2016, SOME MEN WHO CLAIMED TO REPRESENT THE PHARMACISTS COUNCIL OF NIGERIA SWOOPED ON THE PHARMACY.

THEY CLAIMED HE WAS NOT QUALIFIED TO RUN IT.

A PHARMACIST OF 35 YEARS EXPERIENCE??!!

THEY SWOOPED ON A STORE THAT HOLD THE DRUG SUPPLIES OF THE SAID PHARMACY, AND STOLE DRUGS WORTH MILLIONS OF NAIRA.

THEY ALSO BEAT UP THE MAN AND HIS WIFE, AND BRIBED SOME POLICEMEN TO LOCK THEM IN DETENTION.

WHEN THE LEGAL COMMUNITY INTERVENED, THE QUICKLY CHARGED THE SAID MR OLAYEMI TO COURT ON FUNNY, FAKE , AND TRUMPED UP CHARGES.

IMPOSTORS YOU SAY?

NO.

THE PRACTITIONERS OF THIS CRIMINAL ACT ARE|:

1. MR KINGSLEY EHIOSIMWIOGBE: AN INSPECTOR AT THE OSOGBO OFFICE OF THE PHARMACISTS COUNCIL OF NIGERIA
2. MRS FUNMI AWOYEMI, THE OSUN STATE DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF PHARMACY.
AND THE RINGLEADER:
3. MRS MRS ADEPEJU OJO: THE OSUN STATE DIRECTOR OF PHARMACY

REAL REASON:

ADEPEJU OJO WAS THE BEST FRIEND TO THE FIRST WIFE OF OLAYEMI WHO LEFT HIM 18 YEARS AGO.

ADEPEJU HATES OLAYEMI AND ACCUSED HIM OF LEAVING HER BEST WITHOUT A HUSBAND AND SINCE THEN HAS VOWED TO KILL HIM.

THIS VENDETTA IS THE RESULT OF THE ABOVE THREAT.

ADEPEJU IS ABOUT TO RETIRE AND HAS VOWED TO CARRY OUT HER THREAT BEFORE SHE GOES INTO PROFESSIONAL OBLIVION.

WHEN SENIOR OFFICICIALS OF GOVERNMENT AND ITS AGENCIES ARE THIS MISCHIEVOUS, EVIL, ARBITRARY, UNCONSCIONABLE AND MANIPULATIVE, WHAT NOW IS THE HOPE OF THE COMMON MAN AND THE HAPLESS PROFESSIONALS THEY ARE APPOINTED TO REGULATE??

THIS MATTER IS OPEN FOR INTELLECTUAL DISCUSSION

You are just a bloody liar!!!! Stop tarnishing people's image. How can you twist the story this much. Repent!!!
first, they wouldnt steal drugs
secondly, I am sure he doesnt have the license or probably did not renew his license or got the license to operate the store. Are you a pharmacist? No, u are just a bloody village journalist. please do proper research and find out how licensing works before coming here to type rubbish. Its an old thread but I am appalled by what you have written.
