Sophie Eberechukwu Okoye

Sophie Eberechukwu Okoye is a female trader and clothing dealer based in Onitsha, Anambra State, Nigeria. She recently made headlines after filing a legal suit against the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), claiming that her shop was unlawfully invaded and her goods, valued at over N15 million, were seized during an enforcement operation despite her store having no ties to pharmaceuticals. Okoye's case has drawn attention to issues of institutional overreach and the protection of citizens' rights in commercial activities.
