May & Baker Nigeria PLC has received praise from His Excellency Prof. Chukwuma Soludo CFR, the Governor of Anambra State, for producing locally at the Pharmacentre, a May & Baker Ultramodern factory in Ota, Ogun State.

Governor Soludo made his first stop at the May & Baker exhibit stand after arriving at the 2025 ACPN conference, which was recently held in Awka, Anambra State. The majority of the medications on the display stand were made locally at the Pharmacenter, a May & Baker Ultramodern facility in Ota, which impressed the governor.

In his meeting with the governor, Pharm Patrick Ajah, the managing director and chief executive officer of May & Baker, emphasized M&B’s commitment to investing in innovation and high-quality locally made pharmaceuticals as the country’s first pharmaceutical company. He stated that the investment in the herbal factory, which produces new herbal medicines made by Nigerian researchers using locally accessible herbs, was of particular interest.

Ajah talked about two such products: Niclovix from the Nigerian Institute for Pharmaceutical Research (NIPRD) in Abuja and “Roveda,” which is made from the local bitter leaf and the result of research by a Nigerian scientist, Prof. Izevbigie, who is the vice chancellor of Benson Idahosa University in Benin City.

May & Baker manufactures both products in their herb­al facility and markets them.

The governor listened intently and asked some questions concerning the drugs, including their intended uses and the individuals for whom they are intended.

When Soludo inquired about M&B’s investment in Anambra State, the MD/CEO replied that May & Baker presently operates a depot operation in Onitsha and is currently constructing her own facility there.
