The Kano State Task Force Committee on Fake and Counterfeit Drugs has said since the inception of the committee in 2012, over N6 billion naira worth of fake and counterfeit drugs have been seized, stressing that it has helped in sanitizing the society, the country and Africa as a whole.
This was just as the body disclosed that “we have destroyed all the seized drugs. 20 destruction exercises of seized drugs have been held since 2012, mostly witnessed by the executive governor of the state.”
Making the assertion, the Chairman of the committee, Pharmacist Ghali Sule, in a media briefing organized by the Kano State Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalist (NUJ) said Kano State used to be ranked number one in the consumption of unwholesome drugs but has now dropped to the sixth position due to hard work and commitment of the committee and other related agencies.
