COVID-19: Improve fortunes of local pharma industry, Lagos PSN tasks FG, LASG vanguardnews

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria, PSN, Lagos State branch, has tasked government at the Federal and state levels to build on fortunes of the local pharma industry if Nigeria hopes to make an appreciable impact.

“Government at all levels must create the atmosphere for health reforms which will focus on maximising the potentials of its workforce. Healthcare is a globally inclined endeavour driven by international best practice. This is why each health professional specialises all over the world. Towards ensuring drug availability and security he said local pharma manufacturing must be stepped up. “Nigeria must become a hub for drug manufacturing after our recent COVID-19 experiences. We must get the ACPN and PMGMAN to engage the Central bank of Nigeria, CBN, for more palliatives in the Pharma Sector.

According to Iyiola, “Government must support more investors to build a petrochemical plant which is the fulcrum to truly industrialise Nigeria. The PSN therefore looks forward to a stakeholder forum involving the Federal Government, State Governments, and strategic stakeholders in the Pharma sector to revamp the spirit of the NDDG and other strategies to boost local manufacturing of drugs in Nigeria.
