Nigeria’s food and drug regulator has confiscated banned, expired, and unregistered goods valued at more than N1.5 billion in a major enforcement operation in Lagos, as the agency intensifies its campaign against unsafe consumer products.
The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) said the raid was carried out on Saturday at the cosmetics section of the city’s Trade Fair market.
Officials also intercepted a truckload of counterfeit products regulated by the agency.
