The Pharmaceutical Society of Ghana (PSGH) has commended the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) for emerging the Best Public Sector CEO for the year under review.
Delese Mimi Darko was adjudged winner of the category at the 2022 edition of the African Public Sector Conference (APSC) Awards at the Kempiski Hotel in Accra.
A congratulatory message issued on May 16 said Mrs Darko has exhibited exemplary and industrious leadership since she took over the reign of the FDA.
“She has risen up the ranks over the years by building upon the foundation of the trail blazers before her. Mrs Darko has cponsistently moved the institution forward.
“She made us proud when in May, 2020 the World Health Oraginsation (WHO) in recognition of her hard work, ranked Ghana’s FDA at Maturity Level 3 for its medicines regulatory system that ensures the safety, quality and efficacy of all medical products imported, manufactured or distributed in the country.”
According to the PSGH, this achievement and many other notable ones by the FDA will be a great shot in Mrs Darko’s arm to do more for the Authority and the country.
“All pharmacists in Ghana and particularly those in regulation are proud of the exemplary leadership and the high level of professionalism exhibited by Pharm. Mrs Darko since her appointment as CEO of the FDA.
“PSGH congratulates her on this new recognition as the Best Public Sector CEO,” the statement added.
