Dr Monica Eimunjeze, has taken over as the Acting Director-General of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC.
This is following the expiration of the tenure of Professor Mojisola Adeyeye as the DG of the agency.
Adeyeye was appointed the DG of NAFDAC on November 3, 2017, by the President, Muhammadu Buhari.
A staff in the agency, who proferred anonymity, confirmed this to our correspondent on Thursday evening.
According to the source, “The most senior director, Monica, took over. But we have not had a meeting with her because it happened this evening.”
Efforts to reach the agency’s Resident Media Consultant, Sayo Akintola, on the development proved abortive as he did not take his calls or respond to the text message sent to him as of the time of filing this report.
