The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration Control (NAFDAC) has arrested a 52-year-old man, Anthony Chidi who specialises in producing fake alcoholic beverages in Mile 3 Market, Diobu, Port Harcourt.

LEADERSHIP learnt that Chidi was caught inside a dirty shop washing used bottles of various brands of alcoholic beverages which he used in producing the unwholesome drinks and sells to unsuspecting members of the public.

He confessed to have started the illicit business about a year ago, having relocated from Aba, Abia State, where he mastered the trade, adding that he also gets the labels and packaging materials from Aba while he buys the used bottles within Port Harcourt.

Items found in the shop include dirty empty bottles of different brands of local and foreign alcoholic beverages, gallons/jars of ethanol, washed empty bottle, cocks, packaging materials, various brands of already packaged drinks, funnel fitted with filter, among others.

The suspect’s shop was eventually evacuated and everything inside it were moved to NAFDAC office in Port Harcourt.
