DEAR NIGERIAN Stores, BEST Before Means Dont Consume Or Sell After Specific Date by TTNI: 11:05pm On Apr 07, 2015
I live in Maryland Housing Estate and right now am very very mad and upset i have come to observe that almost all the stores especially this store named Medlink in maryland, jesuoyingbo area precisely sells EXPIRED grocery especially coca-cola products either their five alive, sprite, cocacola or fanta.
last Christmas i observed that all the coca-cola we purchased from the stores around Jesuoyingbo where all expired, that period a promo was even going on buy 1 get 1 free. i had a feeling then that it was a conspiracy among workers from the company that probably still allowed those products to get out of the company, or may be not cos when i went back to make a complaint at the store, the worker said the products were just delivered, whereas this products has expired 3 or 4months back.
Today again i purchased a pack of five alive opened it and realized the content was darker than usual, after which i had already had some and also given my 2year old and my 8months old, then i decided to check the expiry date again, i realized the item has expired since 10/02/15.
i for one am an up to date person on checking expiry date of an item before i purchase it but sometimes i forget. Note that not everyone remembers to check the expiry date of an item, not everyone knows how to read, and trust me some has even had probably stomach upset or one health challenge or the other due to expired products but ignorance wont give them a clue. if anything had gone badly wrong isnt it sorry that will end the matter except i want to draw a long case with the court but will it undo the deed..... but thank God nothing went wrong, but will someone else somewhere else be lucky. way back in secondary school i was lost a classmate who ate expired milk.
As for this store, once am able to lay my hands on nafdac contact, i am ready to put a call thru to them to put this store on check before they waste innocent lives with their carefree, cos i believe the priority of any grocery store should be clearing of expired product from the store, but their greed no go gree them.
please no matter how busy we are lets take time to check grocery before we purchase from any store. No matter how Porsche it looks. That person next to you might never be so lucky.
