“Dr. Obi Adigwe, remains the substantive Director-General of the National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development”- Ministry of Health
The Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, would like to notify the public that the information making rounds in the media, that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu appointed Mr. Idowu Goodnews Oluwaseyi as the Director-General of the National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development (NIPRD) is false.
The Ministry would like the public to know, that the information supposedly signed by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Chief Ajuri Ngelale was started by mischief-makers.
And that the press statement is false and baseless and did not originate from the Presidency.
A statement signed by Patricia Deworitshe, Director (Information & PR), disclosed that, Dr. Obi Adigwe, remains the substantive Director-General of the National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development.
The general public is hereby advised to disregard such fake news, as the Management of NIPRD has not been changed.
