Mojisola Adeyeye, the former director-general, is said to have commenced her retirement leave.

In an internal memo dated November 17. Augustine Oboli, an assistant director, said the management is in receipt of a letter appointing Eimunjeze as acting director-general.

Oboli, who copied 27 directors in the memo, said Eimunjeze’s appointment took effect from November 12.

“The management is in receipt of a letter appointing Dr Monica Eimunjeze as the acting director-general of NAFDAC with effect from 12th November 2022,” the letter reads.

“I am therefore directed to bring this development to you for information and guidance.”
