The Nigeria Customs Service says it has seized unregistered pharmaceutical products worth ₦5.8 million in Sokoto and handed them to NAFDAC for further investigation. The items include unregistered medicines such as paracetamol and anti-cold drugs, according to reports.

Outlet coverage is consistent on the seizure value, the location in Sokoto, and the transfer to NAFDAC. Daily Post Nigeria specifies the medicines were intercepted along the Illela–Sokoto Road and names Deputy Comptroller Haliru Abdullahi, described as Acting Customs Area Controller, as the person speaking. The Punch reports the same core details but frames them more generally as unregistered pharmaceutical products seized in Sokoto.
