The Director General of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), Mojisola Adeyeye has disclosed that she inherited a debt of ₦3.2bn, while ₦500m was unaccounted for upon her resumption in the office.
She explained that if such a situation had happened in a developed country such as the United States, the company would have been declared bankrupt.
Adeyeye disclosed this on Channels Television’s Inside Sources on Friday.
According to her, “When I got to NAFDAC, I met ₦3.2b Debt, and ₦500m missing and there was no account for it before I came.
“I asked them if they had capital projects they used the money for. Bear in mind that at that time, ₦1 million was equivalent to $2000. So multiply $2000 by ₦500m. I was coming from the US where money was hard to get. You worked hard for your money. I could have given up but I saw an opportunity and I seized it.
