The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC, on Wednesday embarked on nationwide enforcement against all alcoholic beverages packaged in sachets and PET bottles below 200 millilitres, marking the full implementation of the federal government\u2019s ban on the products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sweeping crackdown, which is taking place simultaneously across the six geopolitical zones, followed the closure of manufacturing facilities found to be producing the banned alcoholic drinks in violation of regulatory directives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consequently, NAFDAC enforcement teams have fanned out to markets, motor parks, retail outlets, bars, supermarkets and other distribution channels to identify, seize and destroy the prohibited products, warning that anyone found producing, importing, distributing, transporting, stocking or selling them risked prosecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Director-General, Prof Christianah Adeyeye, said the agency had directed manufacturers, importers, distributors, wholesalers, retailers, hawkers and transporters to immediately surrender any remaining stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She stressed that continued possession or sale of the products would attract seizure, regulatory sanctions and possible prosecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NAFDAC also appealed to Nigerians to support the enforcement by reporting individuals or businesses involved in producing, stocking or selling the prohibited alcoholic beverages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The agency urged members of the public to avoid purchasing or consuming the banned products and to report suspicious activities to the nearest NAFDAC office.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
