We once told the South Africans that if Nigeria is to take revenge for the Xenophobic killings in South Africa, they will not like our reaction. From MTN to Shoprite and other outlets will follow soon. Thank God Lagos state is still maintaining its place as the Center of Excellence. Keep it up.

Good one. I am a victim of their expired products. Most of their body creams and scrubs have either expired or about a month to expire. I usually thread carefully when I enter that particular branch of shoprite. Good one once again.

Godyke:


It is you that need to use your brain for just moving with the crowd. At least I used my brain to ask whose responsibility is it to seal a business or any premises for safety. And what is the name of that agency and how many of such premises have they sealed so far and for what reason, and why take on SHOPRITE alone. In this case if it has to do with food and drug, it is entirely the duty of NAFDAC and not any state government. Go get some sense
as far it is for the the good of the people. No problem.

This is a very good move; they must think that because they are growing large and fast in the country, that gives them the right to sell expired and sub standard goods. Hope it'll be a lesson learnt by other supermarkets/local markets who thrive on selling expired and sub standard goods to the public.

In some advanced countries, their health industry are conducting various research as to why the rate of cancer is getting to an alarming rate. One of the finger-pointers relates to the type of food products we consume and it includes the expired food that people still consume after the expiry date.

When a food is expired, the best thing to do is to THROW IT AWAY as a lot of food products have preservatives in them. Never buy expired food even if the price is reduced or even if given to you for free, THROW IT OUT as you might be eating poisonous toxins into your system. A word is enough for the wise.

I rest my case

This is setting a bad precident, nigerian managers/management are failing SA BUSINESES. When they start bringing in managers from SA, same nigerians will be the ones crying faul. Dont be surprised whem most of shoprite managers will be south africans. look what happened to MTNi! MANAGERS IGNORING,,order.

Selling expired goods is like selling poison to the public, so you want the government to warn someone selling poison?

The Lagos State Safety Commission has shut the multi-billion multi-national shopping outlet, Shoprite located at the Ikeja Shopping Mall, Ikeja, Lagos, for allegedly breaching safety law.

Officials of the commission were said to have stormed Shoprite on Friday afternoon and drove everyone out and sealed off the massive premises, placing a seal order at the entrance.
The seal order notice read:

“Sealed, this premises has been sealed following the breach of safety law. This seal must not be broken. For further enquiries, contact the Commission.”

On Friday night, many customers who did not know that the place had been shut were stranded outside the premises.
However, a source in the commission told reporters that the place was shut for failing to abide by the safety laws of the state.

The source said there had been complaints by members of the public about adulterated and expired products being sold in the outlet, adding that investigation was also carried out before the place was shut.
Investigation revealed that some products that were supposed to expire in one month’s time were found on the shelves of Shoprite in Ikeja.
A customer, who craved anonymity, said she once bought expired milk at Shoprite, saying that the closure of the outlet was long overdue.
There have also been complaints by others about expired products at various Shoprite outlets.
Officials of Shoprite have been asked to report at the commission’s office on Monday while the outlet remains shut throughout the weekend.
