The acting Director general of the Agency, Yetunde Oni made this disclosure when she took delivery of six operational vehicles donated by Dangote Sugar Refinery (DSR) at its offices in Isolo.
Oni said the donation will go a long way in helping the agency’s surveillance and monitoring activities to ensuring that products retain quality as at the time the product was granted marketing authorization is retained.
