NAFDAC to prosecute Professor who claimed ‘ewedu’ cures Ebola

 The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC, yesterday said it will arrest and prosecute a Nigerian Professor of Ophthalmology at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LUTH, for claiming that native vegetable, commonly known as Ewedu could cure Ebola.
For now, the Agency has quarantined over 104 brands of sanitizers even as it arrested three Nigerian businessmen for allegedly importing expired hand sanitizers and fake Ebola test kits into the country.
Dr. Paul Orhi, the Director General of NAFDAC, while revealing this in Lagos said the various pronouncements by some medical and pharmaceutical professors at these critical times in the history of the country were dangerous.
