DAILY POST reports that this was disclosed by the Registrar of the Council, Pharm. Elijah Mohammed during a press briefing in Enugu, addressed on his behalf by the Council’s Director of Enforcement, Pharm. Stephen Esumobi.
He told journalists that the exercise was carried out by the Pharmaceutical Inspection Committees, PICs, which has been in Enugu State since the beginning of the week.
