Lagos Police Arrest Two With 70 Cartons Of Expired Drugs by AmazingELixir(op): 4:18pm On Feb 04, 2024

Officers from the Okokomaiko Division of the Lagos State Police Command, on Saturday evening, intercepted a Volkswagen LT bus loaded with seventy cartons of expired drugs and arrested two suspects.

The command’s Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, revealed this in a statement on his X handle on Sunday.

According to Hundeyin, the discovery was made at 5:40 pm at Afromedia, where the officers stopped the suspicious vehicle for a search, and found seventy cartons of Feed Fine Cyproheptadine Caplets 4g, which all had an expiry date of 2016.

According to the confession of the two occupants in the bus, they were transporting the expired drugs to an individual in Alaba to change the expiry dates after which the drugs would be taken to Port Harcourt for sale.

Hundeyin wrote, “At about 5:40 pm yesterday, a patrol team from Okokomaiko Division stopped and searched a Volkswagen LT bus at Afromedia.

“The two occupants of the vehicle, Augustine Egemoye ‘m’ aged 60, and Innocent Eremosele ‘m’ aged 35 confessed they were taking the expired drugs to somebody in Alaba who would change the expiry dates and thereafter proceeded with the drugs to Port-Harcourt to be sold.

The date changer should be arrested too.

Almost everyone is Tinubu in one form or another. Tụfịakwa!

Some humans are role models to Satan. These beasts are still selling drugs that expired 8 years ago. The 2016 mentioned might not even be the actual expiration year. Maybe the actual expiration year was 2010. This is part of the reason I don't blame the government for everything happening in Nigeria.

The drugs will fail to cure sickness or even worsen the sickness. Then, the patients will believe their illness is spiritual. You will hear something like, "It started like Malaria but he has visited many hospitals without any improvement".

I will always say this:

Nigerians are demons!

Imagine the level of wickedness and greed that'll drive a human to sell drugs 8 years AFTER their expiration dates to another human.

Tricking sick people into taking substances that would further jeopardize their health.

Pure evil!

That's why you must only purchase drugs from licensed and known Pharmacies.

With the inflation in the health sector, such cases of fake and adulterated medications will be on the increase.

They would have repackaged it and start selling.

They were shipping them off to Port Harcourt to wreck havoc. The heart of men is desperately wicked.

Is it the drugs or the expiration that's the issue here?

…before opening it. I know the tribe..

But eromosele is an edo state name from asan

An expired drugs of 8 years.

In business there is lose and gain. You are bound to lost some and gain some, when you go into business just count your lose and move on. All this one trying to revive a lost business in detriment to human lifes.

why parade them if this story is true
A proper police team would have used undercover cops to travel with them to the alaba dealer and arested him in the act.
The dpo and these policemen are just looking for cheap publicity while doing a shoddy job.
Meanwhile,though its criminal to change the label or expiry date of a product,the belief that an originally authentic drug product that has passed its expiry date will kill an individual automatically is pure fallacy
The worst that an unadulterated drug that has passed,even several years,its expiry date,is that its efficacy is reduced
