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!!!!
Patronize local Nigeria rice and poultry meat to stay healthy

BE WARNED THAT UNHEALTHY FOREIGN  RICE, FROZEN CHICKEN AND FROZEN FISH ARE ALREADY IN NIGERIA MARKET AND A VERY LARGE CONSIGNMENT OF THESE PRODUCTS ARE NOW BEING SMUGGLED INTO THE COUNTRY.
