 NAFDAC Alerts Public to Suspected Counterfeit Forxiga Medicines in Circulation The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has alerted the public to the circulation of suspected counterfeit medicinal products mimicking Forxiga (dapagliflozin) in the Nigerian market, warning that their use could pose serious health risks. The agency said the suspected counterfeit products were detected following market surveillance by pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca. The disclosure was contained in Public Alert No. 036/2026 posted on NAFDAC’s X handle on Thursday.

 NECA DG URGES FG TO AUDIT REHABILITATION CONTRACTS OF REFINERIES BEFORE ANOTHER DEAL


The Nigeria Employers’ Consultative Association wants the federal government to investigate the billion-dollar rehabilitation contracts that could not get Nigerian refineries working or deliver sustained refining output before it will consider engaging in another deal


Director-General of NECA, Adewale-Smatt Oyerinde expresses this concern while reacting to the recent signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC) and Chinese firms for the “restart, completion, and expansion” of the Port Harcourt and Warri refineries.  


He says, while the nation is desperately in need of functional refineries, however, it cannot ignore the decade-long pattern of billion-dollar rehabilitation contracts that have delivered zero sustained refining output. It will be unpatriotic to endorse another deal while questions on past spending remains unanswered.


the Director-General notes that “it is on record and apt to say that the nation cannot afford another trail of wasteful spending. In the last few years, $25 billion had been spent with zero value. Between 2010 and 2023, Nigeria expended over ₦11 trillion  approximately $25 billion on refinery rehabilitation projects, maintenance, and turnaround programmes, yet the state-owned refineries remain significantly unreliable and non-functional”. 


Adewale-Smatt Oyerinde  emphasizes that While the intention might be right, , however, it is  important for the NNPC to avail Nigerians sufficient informational explanation on status of past spending and audits carried out on the refineries.
