The statement read, “NAFDAC has conducted a compliance operation targeting water production factories in the FCT.
“In Gwarimpa, inspectors uncovered a facility manufacturing and selling unregistered sachet and table water under unsanitary conditions. All illegal products were destroyed on-site.

The agency expressed its resolve to ensure the safety of consumers and encouraged the public to report suspected illegal activities or products to aid its regulatory efforts.
