Dora Akunyili died a disgraceful death. For someone who was supposed to have regulated the health sector in food and drugs, she ended up in the very same country that supplies us the most FAKE DRUGS today: INDIA!đź’ŠBecause of her, NIGERIANS are developing resistance to antibiotics
In 2006 when u were 5yo & your dumb parents didn't tell you, I came from the United States and ended up in a media war with her. The major papers that covered it are now defunct, Daily Mirror, Westerner and others. I noticed that Akunyili was some sort of "hero" here so I dug in.
There was no Facebook or Twitter yet so I covered my findings on MySpace. Dora was no hero. Her 900 plaques and trophy's were mostly gifts from companies lobbying for government contracts in the agency. We the US licensed pharmacists DID NOT LIKE HER! Failed to regulate drugs
