Few months in the past, I used to be consuming bread however I couldn’t end it as a result of I encountered sand whereas chewing it. Disturbed by this, I known as NAFDAC to report the incident. The officer who picked my name insisted that I need to come to their workplace in particular person with the bread earlier than they might take any motion.
I defined that I used to be very busy, and urged that I might ship an image of the bread, together with the tackle and different particulars of the bakery, in order that their officers might examine it. Unfortunately, my suggestion was turned down and the matter was not handled. But I finished shopping for bread from that individual bakery.
Just a few days in the past, I purchased bread from a unique bakery and encountered the same expertise. I’m making this criticism public to attract the eye of the related authorities to take motion and make sure that bakeries stay as much as requirements. I’m additionally interesting to bakery homeowners to make sure that bread manufacturing is completed below hygienic situations. Bread is a staple meals for a lot of Nigerians and it ought to contribute to good well being, not trigger ill-health to residents who’re already battling numerous well being challenges from processed meals and adulterated merchandise.
