Lagos Govt Cautions Against Killer Fruit Juice

  • The Lagos State Government has warned the residents of the state against the consumption of expired products.
  • The government, however, assured that the state consumer protection agency would not allow the ‘killer drink’ to be sold in Lagos State.

The Lagos State Government has warned the residents of the state against the consumption of expired products.

The Lagos State Commissioner for Information, Mr Gbenga Omotoso, who gave the warning, enjoined Lagosians to always check the expiry dates of the products they consumed.

Omotoso, while reacting to the report on the sales of expired citric acid powdered drinks in Kano State, urged residents of the state not to consume products that were not certified by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC).

The commissioner, however, stated that the state consumer protection agency would not allow the ‘killer drink’ to be sold in Lagos State.

“We have consumer protection agency saddled with the responsibility of curbing fake products and prosecuting people selling such.

“People must watch out for expiry dates on the products they consume and they have to ensure that such products are NAFDAC approved,” Omotoso said.
