DISCLAIMER: Federal Ministry Of Health Raises Alarm Over False Announcement. .... Says Appointment of Mr. Idowu Goodnews Oluwaseyi as DG NIPRD Not True

Prof Ali Muhammad Pate
Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare


"Dr. Obi Adigwe, remains the substantive Director-General of the National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development." 

"The general public is hereby advised to disregard such fake news, as the Management of NIPRD has not been changed." 


The Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare has called to attention, a false publication making the rounds in the media of a purported State House Press Release, reportedly signed by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Chief Ajuri Ngelale, by mischief-makers.

The false report states that "President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed Mr. Idowu Goodnews Oluwaseyi as the Director-General of the National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development (NIPRD)."

The Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare therefore wishes to let the general public know that "the Press Statement is false and baseless and did not originate from the Presidency. Dr. Obi Adigwe, remains the substantive Director-General of the National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development." The statement issued and signed by Patricia Deworitshe (Mrs), the Director, Information and Public Relations Department of the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare stated.

"The general public is hereby advised to disregard such fake news, as the Management of NIPRD has not been changed.
