It's unfortunate that Nigerians have been made to believe that the objective of the Sachet ban by NAFDAC is with regards to alcoholic consumption by underage and it's relative reports. Has anyone here researched deeply to understand the core effects of this policy to Nigeria at this time? I.e. the local economy? Has anyone considered that the producers and suppliers of all critical Imputs to these sachet companies are employing Nigerians and may close shop with regards to this policy? Majority of these companies procure their production materials from local producers. Items like, Ethanol, PVT Laminate Rolls, packaging cartons, Advertorial products etc. are all sourced from Nigeria. Also, Nigerians should also know that it is the locals that get involved with intermediary sales, promotion, marketing, direct and indirect labour. Do not forget the employment chain. Because every employee has a dependent relative, that also has a relative. It is my believe that due consideration has not been given to this policy. Underage drinking cannot stop by banning a section of the product chain. If the should be a ban, all producers of Alcoholic beverages should cease to exist. It is a competitive market, thus all players must be given equal advantage. In Fact, the proximity of Beer sales outlet to our schools are more common than the accessibility to sachet because sachet sales are common in hard labour areas or corners. Also any child that can afford a sachet alcoholic beverage, can also purchase beer if they so want. Thus, the argument by NAFDAC is purely negative. It is my suggestion that NAFDAC introduce some measures like; 1. Ensuring that +18 is inscribed on the sachet. 2. Agree on marketing approach. 3. Carryout more sensitisation regarding it's concerns. In submission, I appeal that our economy is already seeing a downslide, pushing all the enterprises out is not to our advantage. Consideration should be given to these companies as this will put our country as one ready for investment. Because investors will assume that if the come here to invest, one day, a poorly thought out policy may put them out of work. 1 Like |

According to Oyibo, the ban hurts the union, as most of its members work in the distilling and blending companies. Enemy of the people right here. A ban on alcohol hurts their union. Their union will be happy to see more people die of chronic liver failure, diabetes and substance addiction. |

Abelinkan: Very good! Thousands of your consumers have died. Many more are in hospitals, their days numbered. We need to save lives, if your company should be shut down to achieve that, then it is really good news. |
