The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA), with support from the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service, has closed three facilities in Nungua for allegedly selling illicit FDA-regulated products.
The action follows months of investigations which revealed that the facilities were involved in the sale of nitrous oxide, commonly known as “laughing gas,” Benylin mixed with codeine, a controlled medicine, and unregistered shisha products.
The FDA said the enforcement exercise forms part of its mandate to protect public health and safety.
Two of the affected entertainment centres have been named as Italian Boy Lounge and Liquid Zero Pub.
