The Consumer Protection Agency (CPA) has cautioned the public over the influx of fake and substandard baby diapers on the Ghanaian market.
According to the agency, most of the fake baby diapers have been rejected in their countries of origin due to safety concerns.
The CPA pointed to laxity in enforcement of regulations as the reason behind the importation of these goods by unscrupulous importers into the local markets, posing serious health risks to infants.
A report by citinewsroom.com on May 29, 2025, indicated that the warning follows a recent crackdown by the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA), which led to the confiscation and incineration of over one million pieces of the substandard diapers.
