NAFDAC Seizes ₦1.2 Billion Worth of Fake Malaria Drugs in Lagos Raid

NAFDAC has intercepted 277 cartons of counterfeit and unregistered Malamal Forte malaria drugs, valued at over ₦1.2 billion, in a warehouse located in the Ilasa-Oshodi area of Lagos State.

The fake drugs, which were concealed in cartons labelled as Diclofenac Potassium 50mg, were illegally imported from Shanxi Tianyuan Pharmaceuticals Group in China. They were falsely declared as spare parts in the shipping container.

NAFDAC’s Director-General, Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye, reaffirmed the Agency’s commitment, with the full support of the Presidency and Federal Ministry of Health, to eliminating counterfeit and substandard medicines from Nigeria.
This seizure is part of NAFDAC’s sustained nationwide operation to protect public health and ensure only safe, quality medicines are available to Nigerians.

Fake drugs are worthless. Whatever that is fake does not carry any value or worth.

The administration of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) is combating drug abuse and trafficking at a rate never seen before and still yet, some class of minorities believe this admin is is not winning.

God bless The NDLEA

The law and penalties concerning these fake drugs and product is too weak that is why they have not stopped
IMO, the penalty should be life jail to those importers and total confiscation of their assets.

Fake or illegally imported? If it can cure malaria, then distribute them to Health Centres across the country.

Illegally imported from Shanxi Tianyuan Pharmaceuticals Group in China. They were falsely declared as spare parts in the shipping container.

If I import original drugs from where ever into the country but had to give it false descriptive narratives i.e 'spare parts' in order to cut importation cost, when caught, will the regulatory bodies I.e nafdac call the drugs fake drugs?
