The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) is ready to probe the cases of alleged food poisoning by some customers of Marwako Food on social media.Responding to a tweet, the Authority requested of the aggrieved customer; “Can you kindly DM us the details and your contact number. We are interested. Sorry for the inconvenience”.

Marwako, a fast-food eatery in Accra has been trending on Twitter after several Twitter users complained of getting food poisoning after eating there.

The Twitter tirade started after a user, Edward Elohim posted that the fast-food service had given him and several other people food poisoning.

His statement has been rehashed by several other users who have also accused the fast-food service of putting them in a similar situation since the weekend.Many have since been hospitalised with many of the alleged victims referencing the eatery’s East Legon branch as the possible source of their discomfort.

Some users therefore urged the Food and Drugs Authority to take action against the company.

Meanwhile, some affected customers have hinted at filing a class action suit against the fast food service.Marwako fast foods is yet to release a statement to address the concerns.
