According to a statement by NAFDAC's Director-General, Mojisola Adeyeye, the agency received a tip-off about the illegal storage of controlled drugs at the warehouse located in the Apapa area of Lagos.
During the raid, NAFDAC officials found 1,320 cartons of tramadol, a controlled drug used to treat moderate to severe pain, as well as other controlled substances such as codeine and cough syrup.
