FDA, National Security arrest suspect over sale of cigarette-shaped sweets

The FDA said the product has not been registered with the Authority, meaning its composition is unknown and could pose public health risks to consumers.

The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA), in collaboration with National Security, has seized quantities of an unregistered cigarette-shaped confectionery branded Cigarette Rod Lollipop from the Central Business District of Accra.

The FDA further reminded traders that the sale of unregistered food products is prohibited under Section 97(1) of the Public Health Act, Act 851, 2012.
