Kenneth Chinedu Onuegbu FPSN, the immediate past National Chairman of the Association of Industrial Pharmacists of Nigeria (NAIP), the Founder of Tricare Pharma Nigeria Ltd and the CEO of Xential Pharmaceuticals.

Pharm. Onuegbu is widely respected for his visionary leadership, professional integrity, and remarkable contributions to the pharmaceutical sector in Nigeria.
