NAFDAC Seizes Three Petrol Tankers Transporting Edible Oil In Lagos State
NAFDAC officials have seized three petrol tanker trucks in Apapa for allegedly transporting crude edible vegetable oil.
The oil had reportedly been trans-loaded into the tankers from an edible oil depot.
Concerned about the potential health risks due to chemical contamination from the tankers’ previous use for transporting petrol, NAFDAC officials escorted the tankers to a processing facility in Sango-Ota.

The crude soy oil was then handed over to the Southwest Zonal Office of NAFDAC for further regulatory action.
The Director-General of NAFDAC has since established a committee to develop guidelines and a code of ethics for the marketing and distribution of edible vegetable oils in Nigeria.
NAFDAC in a post on X, urged the public to report any suspicious or unwholesome practices related to food and regulated products. We affirm our commitment to strict enforcement and continuous surveillance to protect public health.
