Tobinco CEO arrested

The Chief Executive Officer of Tobinco Pharmaceuticals Limited, Mr. Samuel Amo Tobin, is reported to be in the grips of the police service.

Meanwhile hundreds of Tobinco workers and well wishers have beseeched the premises of the Nima police station demanding justification for his arrest.

It took the intervention of the Parliamentary Select Committee on Health to intervene in the company’s disagreements with the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) to end the media war.
