NYCN CONGRATULATES THE NEW NAFDAC DG

The National Youth Council of Nigeria under the leadership of COMRADE GARBA MUHAMMAD {GAMJI} wish to felicitate with Prof. Pharm. Moji Christianah Adeyeye on her recent appointment as Director General of NAFDAC by the Federal Government.


In his speech the Director of Health NYCN, DR. EZEKOYE PASCAL commended the federal government for taking the right step in the right direction, putting a square peg in a square hole by appointing a technocrat, a renowned and seasoned Professor of Pharmacy to head NAFDAC, we plead that use of technocrats should also be employed in other sectors.

This is a long awaited actualization and fulfillment of desires and yearnings of Nigerians, it will not only help to ensure to effective and efficient productivity but will help to curb and eradicate the fake and substandard drugs and foods in our country.


In the same vein, we wish to remind the Director General that to whom much is given, much is required, the fate of over 170 million Nigerians lies on her hand, its high time she take the bull by horn and eradicate the fake and substandard drugs/foods that is gradually rearing up its deadly head hence endangering the lives of Nigerians, we plead that she will help restore the dignity of the agency which lost its glory since late Prof. Dora Akunyili left.


More importantly we ask that the agency should intervene on the incessant rise in the prices of drugs in the market which has been inaccessible and profoundly unaffordable to the poor masses, the market need to be properly regulated to forestall the undue exploitations of the poor Nigerians by the importers and manufacturers.


We wish to assure you that Nigerian Youths are ever- willing and ever-ready to support the agency in every capacity to ensure the food and drug sector are sanitized and the lives of Nigerian youths adequately protected.

SIGN:

DR EZEKOYE PASCAL
DIRECTOR,
DIRECTORATE OF HEALTH,
NATIONAL YOUTHS COUNCIL OF NIGERIA
