Nollywood actress raises alarm over fake products, begs NAFDAC for solutions [VIDEO]
by Vanessa Onah · Daily PostNollywood actress Ruth Kadiri has called on the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC, to intensify efforts to tackle the circulation of fake and potentially harmful products in Nigeria.
In a recent video she posted on her Instagram handle, Kadiri expressed concern about the safety of products sold in the country and warned that counterfeit and contaminated food, drinks, medicines, cosmetics, and household products pose a serious threat to human lives.
“Dear Nigerians, I’m speaking to you today with a heavy heart and deep concern about the circulation of fake products in our country.
“Every day, people buy food, drinks, medicine, cosmetics, and household products believing that they are safe, but sadly, some are poorly produced, contaminated, harmful and mostly fake. This is not just a business problem; it’s a threat to human life. Imagine little children battling kidney failure.”

“NAFDAC, please pay attention to the lives of Nigerians. Lots and lots of people are sick and are not getting better.
