 Oba MacGregor Leads Chart To Fill Pharmaceutical Vacuum Through Sygen-ORx Partnership

In a bid to fill the vacuum left by pharmaceutical giants, a renowned inventor, world acclaimed pharmaceutical industrialist, Professor of  Biopharmaceutics and CEO of Canada’s Orx Pharmaceutical Corporation, His Royal Majesty Oba (Prof) Alexander Olusegun MacGregor is leading a scientifically-driven paradigm shift on how Africans access drugs manufactured by global pharmaceutical companies through a partnership with Sygen Pharmaceuticals Limited.

The joint venture with Sygen Pharmaceuticals Limited, the famous makers of ABIDEC Multivitamin Drops was sealed early this year essentially to develop generic medicines tailored to the unique physiological needs of Nigerians and Africans.

The Sygen-ORx partnership combines the expertise of both companies to improve patient care and advanced medical science by modifying improved formulations of generic drugs that have received regulatory approvals and achieved substantial commercial success. 

By leveraging on Oba Macgregor's extensive experience as a pharmaceutical scientist and inventor with numerous ground-breaking inventions, the issue of fake and substandard drugs will be curbed even as the cost of these locally-made drugs will be greatly affordable.

Speaking on the Sygen-ORx partnership, Oba Macgregor who is also the Founder and President of the Toronto Institute of Pharmaceutical Technology (TIPT) Canada and the Olu of Orile Ilawo Egba land expressed his delight over the joint venture, describing it as historic.

In a recent television interview monitored on Arise News, the industrialist expressed his confidence at the success of the venture. According to him, "The venture is primed to provide the basic foundation for other parties in the pharmaceutical  industry to develop the courage to enter into the Research & Development space. We are coming from a wealth of experience; we know exactly how it is done; we know what to be done and we know how to remodel what we are doing to suit our environment," says the Ilawo monarch.

He continued: "The joint venture will improve on the output of people in the continent in terms of drug outcome in the efficacy of drugs a

nd how drugs perform in our system.

Oba MacGregor added: "Sygen ORx partnership is going to be at the frontier of the pharmaceutical sector in terms of innovation and bringing new drugs to Nigeria. Drugs that are not existing already and some drugs that are existing but are being repurposed. Repurpose mean two things. First, finding a useful existing drug that doesn't exist and modifying existing drugs to work better.

I can see this partnership really changing the dynamics of the way Nigerians receive drugs rather than dependent on imported drugs that we don't know much about how they develop them but we buy them anyway. So many of them don't work but we consume them a lot. So, we start by focusing on inwards," he added  

Part of the strategies for looking inwards according to the renowned professor is for collateral industries to flourish. "Collateral industries will develop. For example, pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing companies can grow cassava for pharma use which must be made at a higher level of purity hence that industry will blossom," he concluded

 The Ogunsanyas: A Serial Episode of Lies, Fraud and Criminal Impersonation

By nature, humans are ambitious beings. But pursuing inordinate ambitions with a serial episode of outright lies and greed say a lot about the extent of one's desperation.

This is the lot of the Lawrence Olufemi Ogunsanya Family of Ilawo, Abeokuta whose fruitless desperation for the Orile Ilawo stool has revealed an ignoble stock in trade of a family famed for outright lies, public incitement, academic fraud and criminal impersonation.

After an ignoble loss of the Ilawo stool to Oba (Prof) Alexander Olusegun MacGregor, both Lawrence Olufemi Ogunsanya-one of the failed candidates to the Ilawo stool and his son, David Oluwaseun Ogunsanya soon formed a tag team to mount ceaseless attacks ostensibly to incite the community against the palace through lies and court rulings (which is under appeal) to confuse the native community and incite violence.

The latest of the Ogunsanyas' concoction of lies was served over the weekend when the self-professed medical doctor son, Seun Ogunsanya literally lied and twisted facts concerning the installation of a Baale in Alagbagba village in Odeda Local Government Area of Ogun State. In a viral WhatsApp post, he wrongfully alluded that the police forced the cancellation of the installation based on the execution of a court ruling.

But investigation soon revealed that this is a lie from the pit of hell to score a cheap political point.

Contrary to his outright fabrication, there was only one installation listed for the event and the police merely advised the intending Baale and his supporters to stand off further actions pending investigation of a petition written by his opponents to avert the likelihood of an unrest.

It would be recalled that the same Seun Ogunsanya had recently called for a public action against Alaiyeluwa Oba (Prof) Alexander Olusegun MacGregor as the rightful king of Ilawo Kingdom, but not a few considered his viral post as the ranting of a drowning man.

 But indeed, as the famous Apala music legend, Ayinla Omowura once sang: 'If your soup is tasteless, don't vent your spleen on the leaf.' There is no gainsaying that two years ago, Lawrence Ogunsanya, the father was utterly rejected as king through the collective will of Ilawo people fair and square. But he would rather want to force his way unto the throne by resorting to the rule of the jungle by mobilizing and inciting insurrection against Oba Macgregor. 

He allegedly urged his supporters to resist and counteract MacGregor's directives, insisting that he (Ogunsanya) is the lawfully elected Olu of Orile-Ilawo.

MacGregor has since been installed king and presented with the staff of office by the governor of Ogun State. However, Ogunsanya and his supporters have refused to accept this and have been causing unrest within the community.

In several videos circulating within the community, Ogunsanya had boasted that if his supporters carry out their heinous activities against the Olu of Orile-Ilawo and are arrested, he will ensure that none of them is sent to jail or convicted for such heinous activities.

Concerned about the safety and security of his community, the Olu of Ilawo had through a petition called on the police to investigate the matter and bring the suspects to justice. Acting on the petition, the police had detained Ogunsanya senior and five others pending the outcome of investigation. But in a clear subterfuge move, Ogunsanya Junior allegedly ensured the matter was transfered to Abuja where the suspects were eventually released thereby compromising further investigation.

Speaking on the matter, the spokesperson and publicist to the Ilawo monarch, Lanre Olaleye stated that the latest call for insurrection against his principal has shown a clear character pattern of the Ogunsanyas."It's a clear pattern and stock in trade for the Ogunsanyas. A year ago, Lawrence Ogunsanya mobilized and incited insurrection against Kabiyesi to legitimize his illegitimate claim to the Ilawo stool.

"This is another series of his pathological lies. He is a fraud and a liar. It is not uncommon for a fraud and a liar to continue to lie and deceive people within the traditional setting using the same pattern. He should not be taken serious," the publicist said.

He continued: This tag-team of sore-losers don't mean well for Ilawo. The father, Lawrence had concocted lies including parading himself as the Akogun of Ilawo. But the authentic Akogun of Ilawo remains Chief Wasiu Balogun. Again, he was detained by the police for inciting violence but was eventually released on bail after the case was transfered to Abuja and the matter was momentarily stalled. We are going to recall the case file to Abeokuta for thorough investigation because this is a local matter and not a federal case. We are going to reopen the case for justice to be served because this incitement is recurring again through his son, Seun who is another kettle of fish all together.

"We want to believe Ogunsanya Jnr is learned enough to understand that it is extra judicial and contempt of court for him to mobilize public support on a matter that is already before the court. Just like his father, the self professed medical doctor is trying to galvanize sympathy for his father's cause through subterfuge means against customs, tradition and constituted authority. 

"For the record, Seun Ogunsanya is not who he claims to be. He is a nutritionist and not a medical doctor. On his LinkedIn profile, he claims to be a Ph.D holder. That is Academic Fraud because he only has a Master Degree from University of Ibadan and not a Ph.D. He also claims to be an historian, how does he qualifies for that title? Is it by being a fraud or an impersonator? We heard he is threatening a libel suit? We hope he dully understand the intricacy of libel because the onus lies on him to prove his integrity before a court of competent jurisdiction.

"Ilawo people have seen through it but they are just concerned about their safety and the community. They have been appealing to Kabiyesi to use the extent of the law  against them and that's what we plan to do through the N1billion defamation suit Kabiyesi has instituted against them." Olaleye posited
