There seems to be no end in sight to the age-long rivalry between Nigerian medical doctors and their pharmacist counterparts in what has been a clash in their professional duties.

In a statement titled, ‘NMA Goofs Again’, Oladigbolu said the association is the unsung hero in the Nigerian health space who apparently saves Nigeria from more significant morbidity and mortality rates through their services and interventions.

He also reacted to Ojinmah’s claims that Community Pharmacists prescribe and dispense medicines in Nigeria. Oladigbolu also reacted to Ojinmah’s declaration in the interview that Physicians “study Pharmacology as an aspect of Pharmacy” and so came up with the inference that Physicians know everything about Pharmacy.

Oladigbolu further stated that the Pharm. D has come to stay, adding that other professions that desire the true change mantra will get what they clamour for.
