Chinese drugs will be certified by NAFDAC before use —Minister

The Minister of Health, Dr. Osagie Ehanire, has disclosed that the medicines brought into the country as gifts by the Chinese government to further strengthen the fight against the coronavirus , will be first cleared by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control before they are used.

“We asked where they intend to observe the quarantine and they said they have a compound. So, we sent the NCDC to go and inspect the compound before they came. He added: “Whether they are treating Nigerians or not, I doubt. Because if you are in quarantine and they understand that they are in quarantine, it is not the strangers that you will immediately start using to treat your people.

“I have told them that even though they are in quarantine, they can join us by video conference. This way, we can begin to ask questions so that they don’t waste the period. So, as from next week, we will join by video conference so that we start asking them questions.”

... Show me a visionless, selfish & clueless government and I'll show you a people abandoned to their fate!... Nafdac will certify 🔥 fire: If na so them Sabi certify, why do we still have fake drugs almost everywhere?... Nonsense.

Can we even trust NAFDAC?
