Kano state governor, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has
burnt N10, 152, 800 worth of unwholesome products, confiscated by the state
Consumer Protection Council. The items include cartons of chewing gums,
biscuits and assorted confectionery products.
During a brief occasion held at the office premises of the
Kano Command of National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, on Wednesday,
Governor Ganduje described the seizure of the items as another major step in
safe guarding public health in the state.
“You can imagine how many people would have been affected if
these products were allowed be consumed and not seized”, the governor stated,
noting that traders who market such products do not have good intentions for
the citizens.
Observing that the items confiscated are from one market,
Singer market in Kano city, with the support of the market leaders, Governor
Ganduje urged market leaders across the state to assist the government in
ensuring that only worthy products are sold to the public.
