In a bold move to ensure public health and safety, the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), South East zone, has conducted a raid on the Ekumi drug market in Aba. The operation aimed to identify and seize unregistered and banned products, which pose significant risks to consumers.¹
This crackdown is part of NAFDAC’s ongoing efforts to sanitize the market and protect Nigerians from the dangers of counterfeit and substandard products. The agency’s commitment to this cause is evident in its consistent monitoring and enforcement activities across the country.
The raid on the Ekumi drug market in Aba serves as a warning to all perpetrators of illicit trade in unregistered and banned products. NAFDAC will continue to work tirelessly to ensure that only safe and approved products are available to the public.
As the agency continues its vigilance, we commend NAFDAC’s dedication to safeguarding public health and safety.
