How Thousands Dig UP, Eat And Sell Condemned Chicken In Rivers-tell Magazine by HungerBAD: 7:59am On Nov 03, 2015 |
From Emmanuel Obe There was pandemonium on Saturday and Sunday near the Trailer Park at Ebubu in Eleme Local Government Area of Rivers when thousands of youths, women and children descended on a burrow pit; dug out and took home several tonnes of chicken condemned and buried by men of the Nigerian Customs. The scavengers came with shovels, pans, basins and buckets to cart their loot home. The Customs had on Friday dug out a canal there and buried thousands of cartons of frozen poultry they seized at the Onne Ports. Witnesses said the chicken were brought in six containers, emptied and buried before the customs party left. But news soon spread abroad about the development and very early on Saturday, the human carrions came calling. With no security at the site, they dug and dug and opened up the pit. A visit to many homes around the area on Sunday revealed serious barbecuing going on as people roasted and dried the chicken they exhumed from the burial site. In one, home a full length refrigerator was stocked full of roast chicken, while the hosts invited guest to a sumptuous pick. But the development has sent an alarm across Eleme and neighbouring communities about the danger of eating the condemned chicken. The Archbishop of the popular Commonwealth Covenant Church, the Most Rev. Moses Kattey, had to put out a message to the people on Sunday warning people off eating chicken for two weeks. “A very mighty hole was dug and trailers of carton of chicken were buried by govt for health reasons. People have gone there with shovels to exhume the meat to sell. Warn your people please not to buy frozen or fried chicken next 2 weeks. They are poisonous. This happened here in Eleme but can be sold anywhere,” the archbishop said. Mr. Friday Lewa Goya, a local resident said, “We saw scores of people in Eleme/Onne axis (just before trailer Park) carrying raffia bags full of exhumed ‘frozen’ chickens and turkey. The Nigerian Customs buried them yesterday after seizing them from the importers. “Please if you live in Rivers state, especially in Onne area cascade this post. you might also want to stay off frozen poultry for a while.” A few other residents however said there was no health hazard with the poultry. Mr. Lasbrey Iriaka said the poultry was confiscated not because it had expired or because it posed health hazard. “It was seized from importers because it is contraband. The customs men even diverted one container themselves. So who is fooling who?” queried Iriaka. https://www.tell.ng/how-thousands-dig-up-eat-and-sell-condemned-chicken-in-rivers/ 5 Likes 2 Shares

The chicken was tested by Nafdac and not fit for consumption because it was preserved with the chemical they use in enbalming corpse... The people were told that the chicken could dangerous to their health on the long run but nobody cared to listen. It was even announced on radio. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Despite Being a state with enormous revenue capability yet it's citizenry re hungry.. Is Nigeria cursed What kind of hunger will make a man go dig up buried meat for consumption. Those Custom guyz re just plain dull, re there no other means of disposal than going to bury them...
