The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has sealed no fewer than fifty retail outlets for allegedly dispensing edible oil to the public on the streets and in the open markets in Kaduna, an official said.
The agency said that the axed outlets were found to be selling the commodity in an unhygienic manner, which could pose some serious health risks, including cancer.
The North-West Zonal Director of the agency, Josephine Dayilim, disclosed this on Monday in Kaduna at a one-day sensitisation workshop for dealers on the registration of packaged edible oil under the 'Micro-scale in Nigeria'.
