‘Contaminated’ Sprite: Nigerians warned to be cautious

Nigerians have been informed to be cautious about the consumption of spirit soft drink as some bottles are said to be contaminated.

“Particles” have been found in five crates of the soft drink at shops and a production facility, says the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control.

It is not clear what those particles are, but the authorities say it is the 50cl-size Sprite bottle in particular that is affected.

Some consumers online say the announcement is too vague and are demanding more information.
