Police arrest two men over fake drinks production in Lagos
The police command in Lagos has arrested two men in connection with the alleged production of fake drinks in the state.
The command’s spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the arrest in a statement on Thursday.
Mr Hundeyin said the suspects, Imo Lawrence, 35, and Magnus Nwonka, 42, were arrested on Wednesday.
The command’s spokesperson said that the suspects led officers of the Ojo Police Division to their “inconspicuous” multi-room factory.
He said the premises where the fake drinks were produced were flooded with stagnant, stinking water.
Mr Hundeyin also shared a video that showed crates of different drinks, plastic bottles, and bags of sachet water used to produce fake drinks in the house.
