Another well-deserved feather was officially added to the already filled cap of 2face Idibia, when he was recently appointed an ambassador by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration (NAFDAC). In a bid to increase the efficiency of the agency, particularly in the area of public awareness which is a key element in the fight against the prevalence of fake, substandard and expired drugs and food items, Idibia has been saddled with the responsibility of lending his voice and star power to the laudable cause in the capacity of a global representative. Efe Omorogbe of Now Muzik, the outfit managing Idibia, confirmed that the official presentation will be done at a one-day sensitization workshop organized for all the 774 local government chairmen to be held in Abuja, at the THISDAY Dome, on September 24, 2009. The invitation letter signed by Dr. Paul Orhii, Director General of the agency highlighted that the move was part of a holistic and
multi-dimensional approach towards eliminating counterfeit drugs, unwholesome food and other sub-standard regulated products in the country.
The First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Her Excellency Hajia (Dr.) Turai Umaru Musa Yar’Adua will declare the event open as the Grand Matron of NAFDAC and Special Guest of Honour at the occasion.
