This is interesting.

So, none of these traders know how they can escalate this alleged "levy" by NAFDAC, they had to hire VDM.

Is VDM a lawyer?

Don't they know how to a lawyer to write petition against NAFDAC?


VDM should have posted one of the payment receipts of one of the traders for us to believe that this allegation is true.

Something is fishy

jmoore:


1,000 shops times 700k.

Ok

Dalohad:
They actually asked them to pay 3 million per shop at Idumota.

Negotiation brought it down to 700k per shop.

Seun Okinbaloye and Rufai should invite NAFDAC to come and explain on TV. I want to see her lie through her teeth that no money was demanded by NAFDAC.

The country is a dog-eat-dog situation.

They will soon tell you that Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia and South Sudan started like this!
We should all espect light at the end of an infinite tunnel.

Go to Onitsha to confirm. If he posted the receipt, your twin brother will say it was photoshopped.

You guys act like you don't know how corrupt your police, army, etc are.

Useless country

VDM is the best celebrity in Nigeria.

If you don't like him.. you are part of our problem.

Weldone bro..One man mopol...on some agencies like....

Those at Idumota were reportedly told to pay ₦2m.
Though don't know if it's 100% true but that was what shop owners told their customers.
Also don't know if they eventually paid that sum or a lesser amount,but they all definitely paid some money

MadamExcellency:
Shops should not have been closed indiscriminately. NAFDAC found adulterated, counterfeit, and expired drugs in a handful of shops, yet it unjustly punished 95% of innocent businesses for the actions of just 5%. This sets a dangerous precedent that must be condemned.

Obi spoke against this, u all abused him

jmoore:
No news on those arrested for fake drugs in the market.

No prosecution.

Na same cycle of how NAFDAC officials enrich themselves in the name of fighting against fake drugs

it was done shabbily, hurriedly and with little transparency. Now what are the measures in place to prevent a reoccurrence of fake drugs? What is the extortion and blanket judgement for?

Until I hear NAFDAC side of the story,I remain skeptic

So nafdac officials and their family don't fall ill abi? where do they get medication if they close down a whole market?
then asking each to pay 700k to reopen is for what exactly?
every Government agency just dey normalise abnormalities these days.

You go wait till 8070. Seems you were born today?

Dalohad:
NAFDAC plays politics with drugs and get away with it, because they know that gullible Nigerians will believe whatever they say.

Do you blame them? They spend millions of Naira on laundering their image as the most righteous organisation in the Nigeria, but behind the scenes you will be shocked how corrupt they can be.
They are truly getting value for money spent on media propaganda.

Some of their processes are not straightforward. You won't even find robust information on their website. Then you visit their office, bureaucratic blockades everywhere. The only option? They point to their 'middle men' also known as 'Consultants'.

Try ing a medical product in this country for importation you will spend not less than 10 million naira, but on Remita, your receipt will only read N4 million naira. This money is just to get the NAFDAC number for that product you want to import from India or China. The undocumented fee goes under the table. Of course you know na.

Investigative journalists should beam their search lights on NAFDAC, they will be shocked about what they will find hidden in the closet, beyond all their self-glorification in the media space.

With this extortion it's now safe to say nafdac is now extremely very corrupt and rotten.The lady that accused nafdac officials of completely looting her boutique shop when they were raiding the market was obviously saying the truth.

danvon:
He made a good point

NAFDAC never ever arrest people for selling fake drugs, instead they met out collective punishment which makes more people sell fake since they would be punished regardless.

EFCC remains the most effective agency in this country.

EFCC? Are you even in this country? Is that why Yahaya Bello and his cronies are free today?

Mrexcell:
A notorious d.rug l.ord and tribal bigot is now in charge of nigeria what do you expect? Imagine 1000 traders paying #700k that's #7b. Soludo that's supposed to speak for them is busy arse licking tinibu and attacking peter obi.

700m

RichBoy247:
When village pipu are after you, no matter what people tell you, you will want to jump inside fire.

Ehyah. Try to pray hard so that those village people won't disturb you again. You can meet VDM for special deliverance too

Sack Oloyede, tinubu refused.
Sack mojisola, tinubu will still refuse.
If na chinenye or Nwobodo do this, sharp-sharp, tinubu don sack them.
Tribalism, I dey hail una.

It is called restitution to the Govt...all the funds wasted by the Govt in investigating the crimes nko. The most important thing is for the funds to be documented and paid into the Govt coffers. You cannot bring back the dead but you must pay for your crime. You want prosecution and court...that will take years and their shops won't be open till after court orders it, so which is better?. Pay a serious fine and move on. In saner climate, govt will charge you and you must serve prison sentence then come out to pay restitution on top. That person will never balance

Same thing Peter Obi said and the idiots like reno were castigating him

Nigeria really need an overhaul

U people are so wicked, stupid and senseless. God will judge and punish u for ing ds evil. Dey said people are selling fake drugs, good and fine, what nafdac suppose to do is to make full investigation and find those selling the fake drugs arrest dem and charge dem to court. But what the stupid and wicked nafdac did is to close all the market for three months now, so what the agency is telling us is dat everybody in dat market is selling fake drugs. The innocent people in d market were affected, they beg for money to feed, pay house rent, pay school fees of der kids, and to solve their problem because their means of livinghood is closed down for three months now. Many biz were closed down for three moths now, people selling food in d matket, sales girls, etc were affected. The stupid nadac is now telling each of the shop owners to pay #700k (not dose caught selling d fake drugs) but everyone selling drugs in d market, is ds not wickedness? And u are here ing d agency. God will definitely punish u for ing evil. In abroad dat u are talking abt will not behave like nigerian agency, in abroad the agency will go into full investigation then fish out the bad egg (people selling d fake drugs) and arrest dem den they will be charge to court .

NAFDAC has not shown, in good faith, that they are investigating to crack down on the alleged sale of fake drugs.

They should fish out the criminals involved and deal with them. this blanket approach is a very lazy way of handling issues like this and will put them, and everyone else in more danger!

A a lot of nonsense is really going on in this country.
Corruption is everywhere in all the Institution's and Agencies in Nigeria.

RichBoy247:


So selling fake products is people’s livelihood

And non prosecution of suspect but hustling 700k from both the innocent and non innocent is good right??

If u use this brain u have in ur hom I swear it won't be that peaceful

Since you dont know anything about abroad, let me educate you..

Investigation can take months and years abroad and you will never have access to the crime scene. It was not one shop indicted here, lots of shops so what we have is a MEGA crime scene. As part of investigation, people confess and report or take pleas..instead some of our people lied and denied and NAFDAC said people did not even come to claim the shops. Everyone acted dump including plumbing section storing drugs.

You are MAD at the wrong people. It is like blaming the COPS for killing an armed robber because it was just things...but if there was no robbery, there wont be any shooting. Before you come online and make a fool of yourself calling people names...think and ask yourself, wil this make me look stupid? Blame those that peddled crimes and sales of fake drugs and everyone complicit in killing fellow Nigerians. NAFDAC is not your problem, and neither am I. Blame your FAKE DRUG criminals.

VDM says biggest market in Nigeria and OP says biggest market in the village.

Was that an oversight orca deliberate disinformation?

Sheuns:
If this is true. That’s over 700M naira paid by some of the traders.

Illegal cashout.
