  1. May she be as productive & fearless s the late Dora Akunyili who stepped on many toes to cleanse Nigeria of fake, expired & bad drugs. Amen

    1. Except that Akuyili of blessed memory was not appointed for "political patronage". She wasn't wife of a PDP senator or governor when she was appointed.

    5. She is qualified on the paper but can she perform or will those mobsters allow her to perform her job? One thing is to be qualified another is to do what is required of you. Time will tell

      That's exactly what the anonymous was saying. That Buhari, an "opposition politician" was allowed by his rival to appoint a NAFDAC director in the person of Akunyili. Can Buhari do same; allow opposition politician to appoint a person of integrity?
      Politics without tolerance is dictatorship.

    1. This is a good one. Hope she is ready to deal with those selling fake drugs and cosmetics without fear. It will take lots of courage to do this, that trade fair in Lagos need to be focus on before they finish what is left of Nigeria.
