Fake Condoms Seized By FDB

-

The FDB wishes to caution the general public of the presence on the market of a FAKE brand of condoms - PREVENTIVE PLUS DOTTED. The fake Preventive Plus Dotted Condom was imported by Orackie Enterprise, Kumasi and had no manufacturer's name or address though information on the packaging indicated that the product was manufactured in China.

The said fake PREVENTIVE PLUS DOTTED Condom did not meet the acceptable standard when tested at the laboratory and therefore its safety cannot be guaranteed by the FDB.

The public is hereby being advised to desist from using the said fake PREVENTIVE PLUS DOTTED Condom since the use of unsafe condoms could lead to contraction of sexually transmitted diseases including HIV AIDS.

The general public is further advised to report to the nearest FDB Office anyone found stocking, distributing or retailing the unregistered and fake PREVENTIVE PLUS DOTTED Condoms.

Pharmacies, Licensed Chemical Shops, Supermarkets and all other outlets having in stock the said fake PREVENTIVE PLUS DOTTED Condom should kindly return them to the supplier or the nearest FDB office.

The FDB has meanwhile seized a consignment of the said PREVENTIVE PLUS DOTTED condom pending further investigations and subsequent destruction to be supervised by the FDB.

The general public is reassured of the Board's readiness in ensuring their health and safety at all times.

DR STEPHEN K. OPUNI CHIEF EXECUTIVE

It is the latest move by a Protestant denomination toward the inclusion of gay and lesbian clergy. “I see this as an opportunity to build a stronger church.

Its location is four minutes’ drive from the Legon campus. The inhabitants are predominantly Ewes. The young men are mainly golf caddies while the women are engaged in a variety of activities to support their husbands and family. Interestingly, most of the inhabitants come from Adangbe in Togo which is two hours’ drive from the Aflao border.
