SON seizes N200 million substandard aluminum roofing sheets from companies in Uyo

The Director, Inspectorate and Compliance Directorate, Mr Obiora Manafa, told journalists after evacuating substandard aluminum roofing sheets products at Tevoli Aluminum factory at Ikot Oku Ikono junction in Uyo.

He said that the minimum standard required is 0.4mm instead of 0.25mm which the company was using for the production of roofing aluminium sheets. “This has a lot of consequences using this aluminium roofing sheets because anyone buying it will not have value for their money. Once you buy it, any little wind will blow your roof off. This is why we are trying to discourage Nigerians from importing substandard products. People go out there, import these products knowing fully well that Nigerian standard is 0.4 millilitre.

“We want Nigerians to know what we are doing because it is not enough to do it without getting the press involved. If we so it without getting the press involved, people might not know. They might think we are not doing anything. These products we are confiscating is worth over N200 million. Losing over N200 million over substandard products do not make sense.”
