NAFDAC seizes banned and unregistered products at Lagos Trade Fair market

NAFDAC’s Lagos Trade Fair Raid: Public Health Victory or Regulatory Overreach?

In one of its largest enforcement operations in recent months, the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) seized banned, expired, and unregistered products worth over ₦1.5 billion at the Lagos Trade Fair market. The raid, led by Dr. Martins Iluyomade, Director of Investigation & Enforcement, uncovered warehouses filled with cosmetics and food items lacking proper registration or date markings. A trailer loaded with unregistered cosmetics was intercepted, though the driver fled the scene.

While the operation has been hailed as a bold move to protect public health, it has also sparked intense debate among traders, consumers, and policy analysts.

76 DISPUTED OIL WELLS | AKWA-IBOM, CROSS-RIVER TANGO AGAIN

In the JIGSAW | 29 JULY 2025 | AIT LIVE interview segment, the guest speaker zeroed in on the 76 disputed oil wells between Cross River State and Akwa Ibom State, offering a detailed and impassioned perspective:

Core Issues Raised:

• The guest reaffirmed Cross River State’s claim to the oil wells, citing historical and legal precedents, including the 2002 International Court of Justice (ICJ) judgment and the 2008 Green Tree Agreement.
• They criticized federal agencies like the National Boundary Commission and Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) for allegedly applying biased technical criteria that reassigned the wells to Akwa Ibom without proper consultation.
• A major point was that Cross River was excluded from a key 2008 retreat in Kano, where the reassignment decision was made, despite having no prior boundary dispute with Akwa Ibom.
