Abuja: Drug producers to brainstorm on healthcare June 2

The Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Group of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria has announced plans for its biennial forum slated for June 2, 2016, in Abuja.


The group said the 2016 edition would focus on the development of an innovative approach to address the challenges in the pharmaceutical industry in Nigeria.

According to a statement released on Monday, the group said the forum with the theme, “Medicines’ Security and National Self-Sufficiency: Maximising Medicines,” has been carefully developed to align with the government’s policy thrust which advocates using Nigerian solutions for Nigerian problems.

The statement said the keynote address would be delivered by the PMG-MAN Chairman, Mr. Okey Akpa; while Dr. Mark Abani, who is the Non-Executive Director of Crown Agents and Lead Consultant of MSCA Projects, would be the guest speaker.

Also expected at the event are the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki; and the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Industry, Senator Sam Egwu.
