The Federal government, through its agency, National Agency for Food and Drug Administrative and Control NAFDAC have begin a mop up operational campaign against the sale of sachet and pets alcohol in the country since July, both the illegal sale and importation of sachet and mini pet alcohol is now against the law in Nigeria, NAFDAC have been closing shops and other outlet that operate in selling of sachets alcohol across the country.

I begin to wonder if the main target should be the outlets, retails and other street hawkers should be their first target or do manufacturers and other importation vendors that supply some of these drinks to the market, also, are they insinuating that they are making alcohol unaffordable by the average Nigerians or their only considerate about the health implication on taking alcoholic, how sure are we even the advanced bigger bottles of alcohols don't have more health complicated issue than the sachet ones they are fighting against, how could it be that they want alcohol to be only accessible and affordable to the rich and living the poor behind.

The ban has started in since 2024 but NAFDAC has started  it registering sachets alcohol since 2022, they finally decided to bann it in 2024. What they are doing now will be they are enforcing it because people continue to sell sachets alcohol.

These are the reasons NAFDAC banned sachets alcohol:

Why we banned sachet alcohol – NAFDAC

It it mostly about children affordable to buy sachets alcohol.

Thank you for bringing out the major highlights and clarifying the actual fact behind all this, children are expecting not to have access to buying sachets alcohol and that is why I will also join in support against the selling, however, there are also scenarios in which you will discover some children below 18 years old having money in their disposal to afford buying expensive alcohol at the same time, I think where the limit should start is by ensuring they enforces bars and other alcohol outlets and vendors to avoid underage purchase of this drinks.
