Africa-Press – Nigeria. The Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria, PSN, have declared that Nigeria’s health sector will remain at risk without funding for specialised training and local production of drugs.
PSN called on both the federal and state governments to provide adequate funding for pharmaceutical education.
The association described this step as a critical pillar for national security and the achievement of healthcare self-sufficiency.
PSN President, Pharmacist Ayuba Tanko Ibrahim, made the call at the 2026 Pharmacy colloquium held in Yola, Adamawa State capital.
According to a statement made available on Friday, Ibrahim stressed that pharmacy education must be repositioned beyond an academic endeavor to a strategic national investment.
He added that Nigeria’s healthcare aspirations will remain elusive without a modern, well-funded, and forward-looking pharmaceutical education system.
