The Kano State Consumer Protection Council (KCPC), working with Singer Market leaders, arrested traders suspected of altering expiry dates on expired milk products.

Council chairman Dr Ibrahim Garba Muhammad warned that selling expired goods or tampering with product information could endanger public health and lead to prosecution.
