My people have been brainwashed that the former Food and Drug Chief Dora Akunyili is their Messiah. A woman who died abroad and not in Nigeria, a woman who never instill the passion to have every single Nigerian health professional to come back home after she and Health Ministers regulate the profession of medicine and Pharmacy. The woman who is one of the reason that I cannot practice Pharmacy in my country and have not been appointed as a Senior health official.
Akunyili will be laid to rest next week. She is one of the legacies of ruining healthcare in Nigeria. While Nigerians dote on how they can't belive they had a WOMAN at such a high position, I cannot believe we actually had a PHARMACIST at NAFDAC and did nothing to regulate the profession of Pharmacy.
Now everyone seems to be waiting for ZMapp, an untested drug in a country with an unregulated Pharmacy profession?
Since 1999 when nigeria became a democratic country who has delivered deligent services before and after Dora of NAFDAC?

Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo Leye Odewale Every ministry of health in the Military govt. There was a time Doctors did not go abroad nor we had private hospitals anywhere. Pls save me the rhetoric and bullshit, if you were not born or too young, ask your parents. I graduated from the most renowned Pharmacy school in North America and yet I worked every summer in UCH Ibadan Pharmacy when I came home for holidays. Dora Akunyili did nothing for Health and Pharmacy regulation except regulate pure satchet water and fight medicine sellers in Onitsha. She failed to prosecute her own Igbo friends at Orange drugs when the scandal happened and Obasanjo had to tell her to doctor the report. #WakeUp.
