Voice 2: In Akunyili's native country of Nigeria, local people call her Doctor Dora. She is the Director General of Nigeria's National Agency for Drug and Food Administration — or NAFDAC. She took this job in 2001. And she was shocked at her findings. At that time there were no effective rules for food and drugs in Nigeria. This permitted all the false drugs to get on to the market. Akunyili and her team discovered that almost seventy percent of drugs in Nigerian markets were fake or counterfeit. These drugs contained little or nothing that could cure a person. Or some of the drugs had passed their 'use by' date. Drug suppliers simply put new, wrong, dates on them. Nigeria's hospitals contained fake equipment. Doctors were trying to re-start hearts, without knowing they were using false drugs! Counterfeit and fake drugs have led to tens of thousands of deaths in Nigeria.
