More than 99 percent of private hospitals in Nigeria run unregistered pharmacies.

The national chairman and secretary of the Association of Community Pharmacists of Nigeria (ACPN), Adewale Oladigbolu and Ezeh Ambrose, in a statement Sunday, said those hospitals lacked pharmacists to superintend dispensing and counselling of drug-related endeavours.

They said this is contrary to the Poison and Pharmacy Act.
