pharmacy profession.
According to the statement, Ibezim wins the award on account of his outstanding and innovative contributions in the pharmaceutical sciences and research field in Nigeria.
“The award, which has a price tag of N1 million was presented to Ibezim at the 96th Annual National Conference of the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria (PSN) held recently in Gombe,” it said.
Ibezim, who received the plaque and certificate for the award from Mr Obinna Emeribe, Head, Pharma Sales and Marketing, May & Baker Nigeria Plc, thanked the company and the PSN for recognising his
efforts in the practice of pharmacy.
