The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has issued a warning regarding a batch of Sprite 50cl glass bottles that have been found to be contaminated.

NAFDAC alerted the public to the presence of these unwholesome bottles circulating in Nigeria following a consumer complaint that was investigated by the agency’s post-marketing surveillance unit.

Upon investigation, it was discovered that over five crates of the implicated batch of Sprite bottles were contaminated with particles.

NAFDAC conducted laboratory analysis on the affected batch and has instructed its zonal directors and state coordinators to conduct surveillance and remove the contaminated product from the market.

To address the root cause of the contamination and ensure compliance with marketing authorization, NAFDAC will be carrying out a comprehensive inspection of the manufacturing site in accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP).

The Nigerian Bottling Company Limited (Abuja plant), the company responsible for the affected batch, has been directed by NAFDAC to recall the unwholesome product and provide updates for monitoring purposes. NAFDAC is urging product distributors, retailers, and consumers to exercise caution and avoid consuming, selling, or distributing the contaminated Sprite.

Nigerians are advised to be vigilant and pay attention to the authenticity and physical condition of food and beverage products. If anyone possesses the identified batch of Sprite 50cl glass bottles, they are urged to submit them to the nearest NAFDAC office.

In the event of consuming the contaminated product or experiencing any adverse reactions, individuals are advised to seek immediate medical advice from a qualified healthcare professional. NAFDAC encourages the public to report any suspicions of distribution and sale of unwholesome packaged food products to the nearest NAFDAC office
