COVID-19: We’ve yet to test Madagascar drug-NAFDAC

…says ‘we don’t even know where it’s stored now’

The National Food Drugs Administration and Control says it has yet to take delivery of the Madagascar herbal cure for COVID-19 recently imported into the country, two weeks after the Federal Government promised to send the consignment to the agency for a clinical trial.

NAFDAC Director General, Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye said on Tuesday that she was not aware of the location of the Madagascar herbal cure now in Nigeria.

Speaking on a Television Continental (TVC) programme, “Your View,” in Lagos, the NAFDAC boss said that the Madagascar drug had yet to be delivered to the agency for the mandatory clinical trial.

“As I speak, the drug (COVID Organic) is not yet in NAFDAC for clinical trial,” she said.
