The unholy act was reported by a journalist and On-Air Personality with Solid 100.9 FM based in Enugu State, Blossom Martins, who reported that the unscrupulous operators of the factory located at 104, Port Harcourt Road, besides Venus Hotels, Onitsha, change the expiry dates on the drip bags and resell them to the general public as new and authentic ones.

Here is what Martins posted on her Facebook page:

"Happening now!

PLS KEEP SHARING TO SAVE LIVES!

These people are repackaging expired drip and also changing the dates. This is happening now while we all are in church at Fegge, Port Harcourt Road, Onitsha.

I think the public needs to know about this and let the right authorities take action... Pls, keep sharing to save lives .... #BMCARES... THIS IS WICKEDNESS.

The address is 104 Port Harcourt Road, besides Venus Hotels; am logged at the hotel, not sure of the address."
