NAFDAC caught people hiding fake Parago candies inside a rice warehouse, covering them up under bags and fake labels so nobody would notice.

A video shared on Thursday shows NAFDAC officials going through the facility.

They found the sweets under a tarpaulin and packed in cartons with different product names on them.

An official in the video said the boxes were labelled "Toy with Candy" but the sweets inside were Parago.

He said the same candies were also hidden in other cartons.

He pointed out that the tarpaulin was filled with the candies, and he said an original carton of Parago was found in a store that was meant to be a rice warehouse.

The official said the case shows another way the sellers tried to hide the products from inspectors.

NAFDAC has not yet said how many candies were found, where the warehouse is, who runs it or whether anyone has been arrested.
