The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has destroyed unwholesome, falsified, and expired medical products valued at over N15 billion at the Moniya dumpsite in Ibadan, Oyo State.
The agency disclosed this on Wednesday during a destruction exercise led by its Director-General, Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye, who was represented by Dr. Martins Iluyomade, NAFDAC’s Director of Investigation and Enforcement.
According to Adeyeye, the destruction was carried out to eliminate the risk of the dangerous products re-entering the Nigerian market and threatening public health.
