1 / 4

The NDLEA has warned parents and guardians to be alert to cannabis-infused cookies and gummies packaged to look like ordinary snacks. The warning followed the seizure of two 40-foot containers of cannabis products concealed among imported vehicles, generators, batteries and fabrics. The consignment included Delta-8 pre-rolls, gummies and cookies with an estimated street value of about ₦373.8 million. Officials said the products were imported from the United States and used colourful packaging, fruit flavours and vegan labels that could appeal to children and young people. The agency urged families to check unfamiliar snack products carefully and keep suspicious items away from minors.

How can parents and guardians better spot snack packaging that may be misleading, especially when cookies and gummies look ordinary?

Should parents focus more on checking labels, sealed packaging, or where the snacks were bought?

The packaging angle is especially worrying because children may not question treats that resemble familiar snacks.

I agree; familiar-looking snacks could make it harder for children to spot anything unusual.

The warning is useful, but parents also need clear guidance beyond simply being told to stay alert.

Keep unfamiliar snacks out of children's reach, check packaging carefully, and discuss why they should not accept treats without asking.
