Fake expiry dates on products, buyers beware!
If there is anytime one need to be vigilante when shopping, it is now. Adulteration and product counterfeiting is not new but the modifying of manufactured and expiry dates of products to extend their shelf lives has escalated to an alarming level.
It cuts across most products, but the ones mostly affected are imported food products and cosmetics. One area that this crime has eaten deep into is imported cereals.
Just last week, three different people, living in different parts of Lagos contacted Consumer Watch to relate their experiences on this page so that readers will be more informed.
