SS COMBO: The Standards Organisation of Nigeria on Thursday raided the building materials market located in Dei-Dei, Abuja. The raid, which was carried out by a team led by the Regional Coordinator, North Central, SON, Mr. Nelson Adebiyi, saw the agency confiscating iron reinforcement for building houses worth N50m. The agency took away 90 pieces of steel for further investigation, while the remaining was withheld. Adebiyi said the exercise was to enable the agency rid the Nigerian markets of fake and substandard products. The enforcement was based on survey carried out earlier in the market by SON, which revealed that there are some substandard iron rods being sold by traders, which we need to evacuate from the market, he said. __ SL8.IT for Blackberry
