Following the suspension of the production of Tasty Tom Enriched Tomato Mix, a video has emerged of the Director of Special Operations at the National Security Secretariat, Richard Jakpa, at the premises of the product’s manufacturer, Nutrifoods Ghana Limited.

The video showed Jakpa and his team conducting an inspection at the company, where they uncovered a lot of boxes of what looked like expired Tasty Tom Enriched Tomato Mix products.

According to Richard Jakpa, the products they uncovered were in a bad condition days after they were produced.

“As you can see, this Tasty Tom Enriched Tomato Mix, produced by Nutrifoods Ghana Limited. It was produced on the 21st of July 2025. In less than 10 days, it is fully bloated, and they have a lot packed in their warehouse, and we are going for them,” he said.

The Director of Special Operations expressed grave concern over the discovery, saying that the people of Ghana cannot be treated in such a manner.

“This cannot be tolerated in Ghana; our health matters. And everything must be done to expose them and bring them to book so that Ghanaians can eat proper food,” he said.

The FDA had stated that its investigation uncovered poor maintenance of critical equipment and inadequate monitoring systems at Nutrifoods Ghana Limited.

It urged consumers, wholesalers, and retailers to take heed of the directive and immediately remove the affected products from circulation.
