According to a post shared by the agency on its X (formerly Twitter) handle on Tuesday, September 17, NAFDAC operatives raided the factory, uncovering unregistered chemicals, packaging materials, and expired products that were being revalidated for sale.
The operation resulted in the seizure of over 1,200 cartons of counterfeit cosmetic products, furthering NAFDAC's efforts to protect public health and ensure the safety of cosmetics sold in the country.
The items including mini-mixing containers, unlabelled chemicals, batch coding materials, and thinners, were confiscated and moved to the NAFDAC office for further investigation.
The Agency estimated the street value of the confiscated items to be around N50 million.
