Chief Audu Ogbeh |
The attention of the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and
Rural Development has been drawn to the alarming rate at which unpatriotic
Nigerians are smuggling agricultural products such as rice, frozen fish and poultry
products (Turkey and Chicken) into the Country through the border routes
especially as Christmas and New Year approaches.
Importation of rice and frozen fish through land borders is
illegal and prohibited. Importation of poultry and poultry products through any
means are also illegal and prohibited.
The Federal Government would like to warn that there are
serious health hazards associated with these illegally imported frozen
products. This is as a result of failure in the maintenance of cold chain and
wrong handling of these products. Frozen fish and poultry meat become unwholesome
for human consumption due to chemicals used in their preservations, more so,
there are bacterial contaminants due to poor handling that can cause serious
health challenges.
The General Public is therefore strongly advised to shun all
smuggled foods especially frozen poultry products, frozen fish as well as rice.
The Federal Government will deal decisively with any person, organization, and
shop owners among others involved in these nefarious activities.
BEWARE!!!!
