NAFDAC in Rivers State Shut Down Substandard Bakeries, Water Factories in Bonny
The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC in Rivers State has shut down ten substandard bakeries and eight table water factories in Bonny Island in Bonny Local Government Area.
Speaking on this, the NAFDAC Director, South-South Zone, Chukwuma Oligbo said the operation took three days in collaboration with the police from Finima and Bonny Divisional Headquarters.
Mr Oligbo said the move became necessary following investigations and consumer complaints from the Island. He also said producers of sachet water were manually filling the jars with a locally improvised machine instead of an automated process.
