Senegal’s health authorities are under pressure after expired raw materials were found at a factory producing baby nappies and sanitary towels. Conflicting statements from the country's regulator along with allegations of attempted corruption and delays in an official inquiry are fuelling concern.
Some 1,300 kilograms of expired raw materials have been discovered at a Softcare factory, a subsidiary of a Chinese group specialising in the manufacture of baby nappies and sanitary towels.
