Look at what Zlatan’s Mum did here. How many Parents are left in this current Nigeria that are capable of doing this and insisting that their children must earn right or leave them alone?

PiggyVest Report: Only 1 in 10 Nigerians can comfortably raise ₦156k in 1 week.

- 56% more people want to japa, but savings for Japa have completely dropped, almost non existent.

- Minimum wage is ₦70k but a pot of jollof rice costs 624% than it did 10yrs ago, that’s 42% of the MW.

- Savings collapsed from 8/10 people to 5/10 people, as Nigerians stopped saving simply because they don’t earn enough.

- 58% of adults earn below ₦100k/month or nothing at all. Yet they are earning more now but affording less. Because in 2023 minimum wage was ₦30k and worth $65, now in 2026 it is ₦70k and worth $53, less value.

- In America less 10% of household earning is spent on food. In Nigeria, ₦6 of every ₦10 earned is spent on food (60%) as inflation rises monthly. 60% is the highest of any country the US Department of Agriculture tracks.

- While many Nigerians want to Japa. Many have opted to start life here, not because its easier, but with optimism for the future.

- 63% about 140M Nigerians are living in poverty. 6 in 10 Nigerian do not have emergency funds.

- However, people paying Black Tax has dropped by 80%, though more than half of Nigerian earners support extended families.

- Only 6% of Nigerians feel financially secure. Not because they earn a lot, but because they save a fixed amount monthly.

- Nigeria is experiencing two economic realities at once; on paper the economy is good, which is true. In reality, households feel poorer.

Former US🇺🇸 Ambassador to China🇨🇳 Nicholas Burns: ‘We UNDERESTIMATED China’s power.’

‘The infrastructure, that’s one strength. Second, their scientific and technological capacity. 34% of first year students in Chinese universities study engineering. In the US, it’s 5.6%…

I’ve seen the People’s Liberation Army. We’ve underestimated their military strength…

For the last 35 years, the Chinese Foreign Minister, whoever that person is, has made his first trip of the year in January to Africa, to show the Africans you are our priority. I think President Trump never went to Africa during his first term. President Biden went once.

They’re strategic and we’re not competing on that level. China’s technology, military and economics are stronger than we think they are, and I think we’ve underestimated them, and we can’t do that any longer.’

The challenge is left for ethically-minded Nigerians to restate again that this can’t be the norm. Democracy dies if the sanctity of the ballot is not simply about one human, one vote.

This brazen assault on democratic principles that has been aided by the media needs to be immediately stalled.

Kindly intervene!

Apart from DG NAFDAC's highly inappropriate laughter, it is instructive that the successes she mentioned were financial achievements, the agency's maturity level, and membership in select bodies.

Of course, these are important, but when assessing an agency’s performance, we must always return to the mandate. Even the NAFDAC name emphasises that the agency’s main purpose is food and drugs administration and control. That is what we must judge NAFDAC by, in addition to the functions set out for it by law in Section 5 of its establishment Act, none of which are financial, by the way.

So the real test of success should be: What is the prevalence level of fake and substandard medicines, food, drinks and cosmetics in Nigeria?

Dora Akunyili brought down the prevalence of fake drugs from 41% to 10%. I believe that Paul Orhii further brought it down to 8%.

Today, the Association of Community Pharmacists of Nigeria and the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria say that independent research shows that 50% of drugs in circulation are fake, falsified or substandard! NAFDAC disputes this and says it is only 15%, presumably based on its own sampling. But even if we were to go with NAFDAC’s figures, it is clear that we have regressed as a country.

The focus of an agency must always squarely be on its core mandate. Yes, financial performance, organisational maturity and membership of select groups are important but they pale into insignificance if the core mandate is not being delivered.

You can have a very well-run organisation with shiny financial and organisational statistics but that is not fulfilling its mandate. On the other hand, you could have an agency that is delivering its mandate and saving lives but is managed in a disorganised fashion. If the public were forced to choose only one out of the two agencies, the choice would be clear.

My honest opinion is that NAFDAC has been overwhelmed and needs help. NAFDAC should retain the setting of standards to ensure uniformity but the Constitution should be amended to enable state governments to enforce those standards jointly with NAFDAC.

Of course, it is only drugs and poisons that are on the Exclusive Legislative List. A state government can control food and drinks in its domain and the bigger killers now appear to be adulterated foods and drinks, even more than fake drugs. State governments should do more to protect the lives of their people.
