A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 14. NO 592. 24th Feb 2024} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!
MERCHANDISING FAKE DRUGS IS MASS MURDER !
Although irresponsible leadership of consecutive administrations in Nigeria have consistently derelict on socio-economic commitments, they however succeeded to brainwash a large chunk of gullible followers to support such glaring shortfall in accountability!
Insecurity, the albatross that had constantly depleted the population through high profile crimes and criminalities now has a close ally through massive proliferation and merchandising of fake/expired drugs which consumption have dispatched innocent citizens to early graves on daily basis!
But then, some deluded politicians who prefer illicit wealth to healthy society would prefer that the official war waged on fake and adulterated drugs should be less aggressive and have brazenly confronted law-enforcement agents with such heartless pleas!
And whereas victims of the illegality of mass distribution of faked drugs to all the nooks and crannies of the nation are the masses of their various constituencies!
And unfortunately these set of Nigerians are the same paid to protest with placards completely unbothered to ascertain the legitimacy or constitutionality of their engagement but always focused on pecuniary reward alone!
CAN NAFDAC PURGE ABA MARKET OF FAKE DRUGS?
Aba Drug Market, Abia State Nigeria is notorious for all forms un-orthodox and illegal forms of promoting, dispensing and marketing all manner of fake, adulterated and expired drugs into the nation’s medical space for consumption by innocent citizens who are dispatched to early graves!
Since 1999, NAFDAC’s searchlight had been regularly beamed on the ABA DRUG MARKET, Nigeria‘s headquarters of illicit and fake drugs where unwholesome trading irregularities were executed as normal business!
In spite of the great efforts made by late Professor Dora Akuyili (OFR), to eradicate expired drugs from Nigerian markets during her eight-year (2001-2008), tenure as Director General of NAFDAC, the horrible activities of the drug cabal have increased and flourished by leaps and bounds!
Dora who even shut the market for FOUR WEEKS on an occasion during that period escaped assassination attempts on her life by the hair’s breath for daring to expose the ABA DRUG CABAL! Being a Professor of Pharmacology she perceived the collateral damages which unethical and outrageous dispensation of fake drugs could inflict on the illiterate masses of citizens. Following her appointment as Director General of National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), in 2001, she was quick to identify Aba Drug Market as the main channel distribution of fake drugs to major cities of Nigeria and confronted the challenge head long. But credit must be given to successive administrations which never relented to pursue the drug barons to their various hide outs and to completely destroy their Cartel with regular-professional raids!
LATEST JOINT RAID BY SECURITY AGENCIES ON ABA, ONITSHA, LAGOS DRUG MARKETS! [BUSINESS DAY – NEWS AGENCY OF NIGERIA REPORTS].
Inside death chamber: How NAFDAC raided expired drug revalidation factories in Aba!
The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), Monday, February 10, 2025, raided EKUMI Drug Market in the Ariaria area of Aba, Abia State, where it discovered methamphetamine (Mpuru Mmiri), banned and some unregistered medicines in some shops in the market.
Also discovered Monday, which was day-one of the raid, were Analgin injection and Gentamicin 280 mg, which had long been banned by the agency in a magnificent two-storey plaza filled from top to ground floors!
This is coming barely 5-months (August 20, 2024) after some patent medicine dealers in the market, under the aegis of EKUMI Plaza Patent Medicine Dealers Association (EPPMDA), claimed to have purged themselves from stocking expired and fake medicines, by voluntarily handing over some counterfeit and expired medicines, estimated to about ₦50million to the food and drugs regulatory agency for destruction.
An action that is in line with the order of the Federal Government, represented by NAFDAC to ensure that expired and unwholesome drugs are removed from the market for the safety of consumers.
COMMENT: EPPMDA’s action in the preceding paragraph has proved to be DIVERSIONARY but the government agency which had its plain cloth operatives on ground had beaten them to their GAME OF DECEIT!
In a Press Interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), NAFDAC Director of Investigation and Enforcement, Mr. Shaba Mohammed said that simultaneous operations conducted at the IDUMOTA OPEN DRUGS MARKET in Lagos State alongside ONITSHA AND ABA, would rid the country of counterfeit and substandard medicines.
The Director also, told the Media during the enforcement exercise on Tuesday that the Lagos Market was sealed on Sunday.
He said It was sealed alongside the Ariaria drug market in Aba, Abia State and the Onitsha drug market in Anambra State.
POLITICAL INTERVENTION BY PETER OBI IS DANGEROUS PRECEDENCE!
During the ABA RAID, the entire shopping complex which had to be closed down for one week to fish out the culprits attracted orchestrated sundry protests from the traders and some politicians. Prominent among them was Peter Obi the unsuccessful Labor Party Candidate at the 2023 Presidential Election who physically visited the SHUT MARKET in solidarity with affected traders. It is unfortunate that human lives in Nigeria have no value when it comes to presidential politics which is an aberration to a developing country like Nigeria!
DEFENDING THE INDEFENSIBLE!
Responding to the protests of Aba Traders, Peter OBI who was opposed to the total closure of the market due to wholesale relabeling and merchandising of both expired and fake drugs faulted NAFDAC officials for closing down the entire Market!
Obi’s Operational Code suggests the following steps:
Isolate the identified building that have run foul of the law,
Carry out your investigation in such areas only to avoid depriving other unaffected traders of their DAILY BREAD!
According to him there were PLUMBERS and others who do not market drugs!
Peter Obi’s visit was no doubt a political stunt towards another shot at the presidential seat in 2027, trusting that he garner large votes from that region!
The lofty and prestigious position of the presidency only matter to avaricious and greedy Nigerian Politicians!
Did Peter Obi ponder that the entire Aba Market is a Cartel of all shades and characters in illegal dispensation of fake drugs to innocent citizens ?
Did he introspect that those Plumbers and other ancillary traders in the market were all collaborative in the marketing of the death drugs?
Should he not have thought that those other traders and their shops were fronting for the drug barons and that they were actually part and parcel of the illicit market?
Peter Obi was hailed but NAFDAC stood it’s ground. Ensured evacuation for destruction of fake drugs, made necessary arrests across the three States of Operation!
NIGERIANS CONDEMN CORRUPTION BUT DEFEND CORRUPT LEADERS – EFCC CHAIRMAN. 3rd February 2025.
The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Ola Olukoyede, has said some Nigerians complain of corruption but support corrupt leaders in various ways when they are prosecuted.
While addressing officials of the Centre for Crisis Communication led by one Chris Olukolade, the EFCC boss pointed out the contradiction in public attitude, nothing that while Nigerians decry corruption, they often support and defend corrupt leaders when they are prosecuted.
“Everybody is crying that Nigerians are corrupt, that the system is corrupt, that corruption is killing us and destroying our system, but when we investigate high profile cases and arraign people in court, the same people will carry placards and be supporting corrupt leaders.
It doesn’t show that we are serious about this fight, the fight is supposed to be a collaborative effort, he said.
Olukoyede noted that the fight against corruption required collaboration between the government and the citizens, adding that true progress requires a collective commitment to integrity and accountability.
He stated that corruption remained the biggest obstacle to national development.
One of the major problems in Nigeria which when tackled, will make under-development a thing of the past, is corruption and financial crimes, he said.
Olukoyede reiterated the EFCC’s commitment to combating financial crimes within the ambit of the law and called for greater public collaboration in the fight against corruption”.
Were not all the Presidential Candidates during the 2023 Election Adjudged to be corrupt?
How many of them up to now have declared their assets and liabilities?
Do they not all have illicit monies stashed they were in dubious foreign accounts overseas?
The bane of the Nigerian Society is CORRUPTION and the solution to bad governance is TOTAL RIGHTEOUSNESS which can only be achieved through a credible UNICAMERAL PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT!
Mr. Tinubu is finding it difficult to bow to the wishes of the CITIZENS and the PATRIOTS who have demanded for a NEW PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUTION THROUGH POPULAR REFERENDUM . If he’s not a corrupt leader why should he find it difficult to implement such a very laudable type of acceptable government that will totally eradicate CORRUPTION?
Tinubu, you have no choice than to do the WILL OF GOD FOR THE NIGERIANS!
THE CONSEQUENCE OF DISOBEDIENCE IS DESTRUCTION!
