The Food and
Drugs Authority (FDA), with the assistance of the Security Agencies, has caused
the arrest of a 64 year old woman by name Adwoa Biama, producing and
distributing fake Unilever products and other unregistered products.
Adwoa Biama,
together with her Production Manager, Kwabena Asiedu was arrested at Biadwoa
Enterprise Limited located at Lashibi where they produce the fake Unilever
products together with the other unregistered products.
The fake
Unilever products being produced by Biadwoa Enterprise Limited are VASELINE,
CURL OUT and SUN SILK POMADE. The fake Vaseline bears no
manufacturers name or address whilst the fake Curl Out and Sun Silk Pomade bear
the address of Unilever.
The other
products (unregistered) being manufactured by Biadwoa Enterprise Limited are
Bonita Hair Pomade, Mariama Hair Food, Glow Up Hair Pomade, Beauty Hair
Food, Esther Hair Pomade and Dasline. The safety of these products
cannot be guaranteed.
Retailers
and distributors of FDA regulated products are advised to source their supplies
from only recognised dealers so as to avoid dealing in fake and/or unregistered
products, which is criminal and therefore makes them equally culpable.
Furthermore,
the public is cautioned against the patronage of the fake Unilever products
including the above listed unregistered products since their safety cannot be
guaranteed.
The accused,
Adwoa Biama, who is currently on bail, is assisting the Police in their
investigations.
Additionally,
the general public is being assured of FDA’s readiness to ensure public health
and safety at all times and therefore appeals to the general public to give any
information on persons suspected to be in any practice possible of endangering
public health and safety through any of the following contacts; 0244337235,
0267265087, 0208204968 or 0246809509.
