Pharmacists accuse govt hospitals CEOs of diverting drug funds
The umbrella body of pharmacists in the country, the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria (PSN) has accused Chief Executive Officers of the federal government owned health Institutions of corrupt practices, including the diversion of funds released for procurement of drugs.
The allegations which were contained in a communique signed by the President of PSN, Prof. Cyril Usifoh, and National Secretary, Garfa Madehin, on Wednesday after the 96th annual national conference of the society which was held between October 30 and November 4 in Gombe State, called on the federal government to probe the corrupt cases against the CEOs.
The PSN also raised an alarm over unregistered drug sellers in the country which it put at more than two million.
The PSN also expressed its concerns over the mortality rate in the health system which it says would surpass the all-time high of 10.8 per cent recorded in 1998 if the funding of the Council continues to be neglected by relevant authorities.
