“The main reason for the law is because, the syringes we produce in Nigeria are world class and the country would not want to spend her foreign exchange on what is already being produced locally.“We are working to ensure a total ban on importation of syringes into the country. We are working closely with the ministry of health, NAFDAC and they are cooperating with us very well.“It is a blessing for us in Nigeria to have good quality product produced locally.
We made sure we go through all the processes to ensure that what comes out is the best,” he explained further.Oyediran noted that the ban would give the company which is in a Public Private Partnership with the Akwa Ibom State Government an opportunity to increase production capacity as well as hire more Nigerians to work in various areas of need and would enhance economic as well as human capital development.
