National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has shut down an illegal production facility in Ipaye, Iba, Lagos, for manufacturing unregistered cosmetic products.
During the week, following extensive surveillance, NAFDAC officials raided the premises, apprehended staff members, and confiscated various products, including body washes, cleansing soaps, lightening creams, children’s skincare items, and packaging materials.
The facility has been sealed to halt further production, and one individual is currently in custody for further investigation.
NAFDAC reiterates its commitment to protecting public health by clamping down on unregulated and unsafe products in the markets.
