Fake Colgate Toothpaste in Nigeria: What NAFDAC Found in Kaduna and How to Spot It
In April 2026, NAFDAC discovered two unregistered counterfeit toothpaste products in Kaduna State sold under the name "Coglaet" — a deliberate misspelling of Colgate. The fake products, Coglaet ActivGel and Coglaet Herbal, carried no NAFDAC registration number, no batch number, and no verified manufacturer information. They were being distributed through door-to-door sales agents across retail shops. NAFDAC has directed nationwide surveillance to remove the products from circulation. Nigerians are advised to check the spelling of their toothpaste brand, verify the NAFDAC number on VerifyProduct.ng, and buy personal care products only from registered and reputable outlets.
