Read Time:47 Second
National Agency for Food and Drugs Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has uncovered a warehouse in Oke-Afa, Okota, Lagos, stocked with unregistered and expired supermarket items. Acting on credible intelligence, NAFDAC’s Investigation & Enforcement Directorate raided the facility, apprehending operators offloading a 20ft container filled with unregistered carbonated drinks.
A further inspection revealed over 14 rooms packed with unregistered and expired products, some of which were contaminated by rats, indicating poor storage conditions.
The facility was immediately placed on hold, with all operations suspended pending further investigation. NAFDAC has invited the management to provide sourcing evidence, including the Global Listing for Supermarket Items (GLSI) certificate.
The Agency warns of the risks posed by unregulated products, particularly as the festive season approaches.
NAFDAC urges consumers to remain vigilant by verifying product sources and reporting suspicious activities to the nearest office. This operation underscores the Agency’s commitment to protecting public health and enforcing regulatory standards.
