The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC, has cleared the air about the registration status of some products circulating in the public.
This is according to a statement signed by its Director-General, Prof Mojisola Adeyeye, and issued to newsmen in Abuja on Thursday.
She listed the products as Cway Drinking Water, Eva Premium Table Water, Peak Full Cream Instant Milk Powder, and Golden Penny Pasta Spaghetti.
According to her, it became imperative to clear the air following reports claiming that the agency was “watching while the manufacturers of those products flaunt expired licences”.
She said that the Director, Food Registration and Regulatory Affairs of the agency investigated the erroneous claims and found that the registration status of all the four products mentioned in “the mischievous write-up” were valid.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Cway Drinking Water, Eva Premium Table Water, Peak Full Cream Instant Milk Powder, and Golden Penny Pasta Spaghetti all have valid registration,” she said.
