Counterfeiters will continue unless death penalty is imposed — Onanuga

Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has warned that counterfeiters will continue their activities unless the death penalty is imposed on them. This comes after the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) discovered a suspected counterfeit alcohol factory in Aba, Abia State, and seized equipment, materials, and components valued at over ₦500m.

Onanuga's remarks were made on X, in response to a post by NAFDAC about the raid. The agency urged the public to report suspected illegal manufacturing to its call centre or email.
