Iyabo Obasanjo Lobbies To Become Nafdac Boss! by Nobody: 10:57pm On Jul 10, 2011
After her inability to retain her seat at the Senate, Iyabo Obasanjo


Bello, daughter of ex president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has set her eyes on a new portfolio.

She wants to become the new Director General of National Agency for Food and Drugs Administration and Control. And she is said to have initiated the moves toward achieving this aim with tactic support from her father.

Insiders revealed that Obasanjo Bello set her eyes on the NAFDAC job after attempts to get her into the ministerial nominations list failed to sail through.

She is said to be calling in favors owed to ensure that unlike the ministerial ambition- the NAFDAC job sees the light of the day.

Investigations conducted by www.societynowng.com revealed that the lobby for the job has become so intense that the incumbent head of NAFDAC has become panicky.

Sources claimed that one of the major points supporters of the Iyabo Obasanjo for NAFDAC D.G campaign are using to champion their cause is the fact that, unlike the era of his predecessor- Orhii’s tenure has virtually coated the agency in obscurity.


The campaign has an elaborated claim that Iyabo Obasanjo, based on her experience as Chairman Senate Committee on Health- and depth as a politician with extensive contacts and influence, would do a better job than Paul Orhii.

Very privy sources however informed www.societynowng.com that the hidden agenda is the intent by Obasanjo Bello to use the agency as a launch pad back to political reckoning- like Akunluyi used it to achieve political credibility.






Clinical observers however claimed that the plan appears to be taking shape by the day- with former president Obasanjo said to have given his blessing to his daughter’s latest adventure.

Further investigations by www.societynowng.com revealed that the incumbent is presently engaged in counter lobbying to retain his job.

And in a bit to puncture allegation of non performance against him- he is said to have recently engaged in a series of media campaign to shore up his image and that of the agency.

Whether he would make a success of his bid or Iyabo Obasanjo would succeed in her adventure is a matter to be seen in the nearest future.

Mr Paul Orhii did not pick his phone or respond to text messages on the matter at press time.

I ssaw this on the website above, and I'm not really sure if it's fake or real.

I need to know if this is true so that I can kuku give up on Nigeria right now, I'm seriously looking at a triple citizenship with Somalia being the third. Seems like you people are not ready for any kind of change. A country that would vote in GEJ and Iyabo in the same year is not serious.

This had better be another joke on a sorry azz website called www.societynowng.com

She still like egunje?. Egunje plenty for that side o. Why didn't her father get her the positions of health minister or finance minister?. At the minimum, her dad is able to make her the CBN governor.

I hear she has a degree in Vet medicine
She also has some legislative experience
But she is so corrupt that fake drug dealers will simply turn Nigeria into Mexico - after bribing her with bags of money
She might be educationally and administratively fit, but she is utterly morally bankrupt.
Overall, I do not recommend her for the job.


Akunyili is the yardstick for NAFDAC. Anybody not better than her cannot be acceptable.
Orhii was a mistake foisted on us by Yaradua.

So, NAFDAC has become a place to attain political relevance now, not a place for PROFESSIONAL minds any longer. I pity my country Nigeria.

As the daughter of the Chairman BOT PDP and an ardent PDP member, Jonathan has no choice than to look for something for her. That is what party loyalty is all about.

She is not fit for such a job.

This is a huge joke. I think the time has come for us to stand up and be counted as the catalyst that will cause a positive change. Enough is enough.

iyabo is not qualified for the job according to the decree of nafdac. she is not a phd candidate or holder and since nafdac was established not less than phd holder has headed nafdac and am sure goodluck will not want to break such record. A professor of pharmacy will soon be engaged because paul is under performing by spending on aesthetics value instead of real operation. This he has been engaged in by syphoning money to sponsor politicians and his tribal men through award of such contracts. ICPC has been on him of late.

In a just society, Iyabo "Godzilla" Obasanjo would be serving out her LIFE jail sentence for the industrial-scale graft and treasury looting that she was found to have perpetrated while in her erstwhile government  post during the kleptomaniac reign of her father as Nigerian president.

That 400-pound hippopotamus ho' sure does have some nerve, in seeking to get her grubby paws into government coffers yet again, and yes, if this convicted felon does manage to get herself imposed as Nigeria's pharmaceutical gatekeeper,  MASSIVE importations of deadly substandard drugs WILL will flood the Nigerian market, in exchange for bribes paid to that thieving, murderous fat phuck, and thousands of innocent people will subsequently lose their lives DIRECTLY as a result of this criminal scum-bucket's presence in the corridors of power.

Lock that mad monkey the phuck up where the sun don't shine, and throw the key down the sewer already.   Chit.
