The Nigerian Agency for Food Drug and Administration and Control ( NAFDAC) has seized N41.2 million worth of fake wines in Nasarawa State.
According to a statement via its official X handle, its operatives uncovered the fake wines after conducting a major raid on wine shops in Mararaba Market and the New Nyanya and Masaka areas of Nasarawa State.
The statement reads, “The operation targeted counterfeit and adulterated wines and spirits, resulting in the seizure of products valued at over ₦41.2 million.”
“NAFDAC’s Investigation & Enforcement team is actively investigating the importers or manufacturers behind these counterfeit drinks.”
The agency, however, urged consumers to remain vigilant and always report suspicious products to the nearest NAFDAC office for immediate action.
