NAFDAC sounds alarm on smuggled foods, crackdown looms

NAFDAC is warning everyone that smuggled food like pasta, noodles, sugar, and tomato paste keeps showing up in Nigerian markets even though the government banned importing that stuff. Director-General Mojisola Adeyeye said these products never went through safety checks, and selling them breaks trade laws while putting people's health at risk.

The agency told importers, supermarket owners, and market traders to stop moving these banned items immediately or face consequences like having their goods destroyed and losing their licenses. NAFDAC wants customs, immigration, and other government groups to work together better to keep unsafe products out of the country.
