Retailers across Nigeria are protesting against the ongoing enforcement of the ban on sachet alcohol below 20cl by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC). Traders report significant financial losses, merchandise seizures, and an inability to repay bank loans as their primary source of daily income faces total collapse. While the association of traders has appealed to the federal government for intervention, NAFDAC maintains that it is merely fulfilling its statutory regulatory duties. Retailers argue that underage alcohol consumption is a matter of parental responsibility rather than packaging size and are calling for a policy review to protect their livelihoods.
