Product details

The details of the recalled product are as follows:

Indomie noodles have become a household staple in many countries. Their popularity is rooted in convenience, versatility, affordability, and the comfort they bring to family meals.

Although the official risk of these products entering Nigeria is low due to the Federal Government’s ban on noodle importation, there remains a need for heightened vigilance to prevent possible illicit entry or circulation of the implicated Indomie brand.

NAFDAC has commenced vigilance actions to guard against possible entry of the brand into the country, as acquisition of the product through online purchase or international travel cannot be excluded.

All NAFDAC zonal directors and state coordinators have been directed to carry out surveillance and mop up the product if found within the zones and states.

Distributors, retailers, and consumers are hereby advised to exercise caution and vigilance within the supply chain to avoid the distribution, sale, and consumption of the recalled foreign brand of Indomie noodles.

Consumers should discard the product and not consume it. Report any suspicion of the sale of the implicated brand of Indomie noodles to the nearest NAFDAC office, NAFDAC on 0800-162-3322. Also, report adverse events or side effects related to the consumption of the products or devices to the nearest NAFDAC office, or through the use of the E-reporting platforms available on the NAFDAC website www.nafdac.gov.ng
