The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has seized three Petrol Tankers used to convey edible vegetable oil in Lagos State.
Making the revelation in an X post on Wednesday, the agency said the oil had reportedly been trans-loaded into the tankers from an edible oil depot.
In an attached video showing one of the seized tankers, a NAFDAC official said credible information revealed that the same tankers used to load vegetable oil had been used to load petroleum products.
