    PCN

    Four pharmacists have been suspended by the Disciplinary Tribunal of the Pharmacists Council of Nigeria (PCN) for unethical practices and misconduct.

    The pharmacists identified as Daniel Aghanemuzor, Fidelis Ogonna Okenwa, Bukola Temitope Odunbiro and Nwakpuma Richard Nwophe, were suspended for offences ranging from making false statements to the council for the purpose of procuring the registration of new pharmaceutical premises, diversion of company funds and pharmaceutical products, holding dual employment and fraud such as falsifying Remita Retrieval Reference (RRR) payment receipt to the PCN among others.

    Two of the pharmacists were suspended for three years, one for 33 months, and the other for one year.

    Chairman of the governing council of PCN, Prof. Ahmed Tijjani Mora, who is also the chairman of the tribunal, said the four pharmacists deviated from the ethical standard of pharmacy practice.

    Names of the four pharmacists would be deleted from the register of registered pharmacists in Nigeria for the period of the suspension.
