As part of preparations for the 98th Annual National Conference of the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria (PSN), tagged DABO 2025, key stakeholders in the pharmaceutical sector have assured that this year’s event will blend intellectual discourse with social engagement to make it a memorable experience for all participants.
Speaking at the pre-conference press briefing held at the PSN National Secretariat in Lagos, on October 14, 2025, the Assistant General Manager (Marketing) at Fidson Healthcare Plc and Chairman of the Conference Planning Committee (CPC), Pharm. Friday Enaholo, said the forthcoming conference promises to be impactful, enlightening, and fun-filled.
“It will be a conference where we mix fun with intellectual discussion. At the end of the conference, we will come up with a communiqué that will change the course of pharmacy practice and positively impact the profession,” Enaholo stated.
He highlighted that the choice of Kano State as the host city was strategic, describing it as a vibrant commercial hub and a major political center in Nigeria.
“The city of Kano is known for its commercial activity and political relevance. We are bringing something new and different this time around. It’s going to be a gathering of pharmacists from across the country and even beyond. I assure you it will be worth everyone’s while,” he added.
Speaking further, Pharm. Enaholo emphasized the intellectual depth of this year’s conference theme, “Pharmacy Forward: Building a Future-Ready Workforce for Performance, Collaboration and Transformation.”
“The theme is a big one, and very intellectual people will be available to share insights, starting from our keynote speaker. There will also be exciting side events such as a golf tournament and a football match—it’s going to be fun,” he said.
The PSN 98th Annual National Conference, scheduled to hold from November 3 to 8, 2025, at Bayero University, Kano, is expected to attract thousands of pharmacists, policymakers, health professionals, and industry leaders from across Nigeria and the diaspora.
