A NAFDAC staff on site, who preferred anonymity told Vanguard that: “this is a case which has been concluded. Guinness has been given permission to destroy the expired raw materials belonging to them while we supervise. “We have two products, the malt extracts in drums and glucose in packs.
Mr Ernest Abu, Manager at Guinness said “the exercise is based on a resolution between NAFDAC and Guinness. I am only on ground to ensure that the destruction goes according to acceptable safety standards.’’
NAFDAC had on Nov. 9, 2015, written a letter on `Payment of Administrative Charges for Various Clandestine Violations’ to the Managing Director of Guinness Nigeria Plc. The agency stated that the company had been involved in clandestine violations contrary to the rules, regulations and enactments of NAFDAC and consequently fined Guinness one billion naira.
