Yes...FORMALIN....what they use in embalming dead people...to preserve it Ingesting formalin can cause cancer...among other things.!

erico2k2: I guess the problem is that you do not read the news, nor do you follow issues. This is not the first time Customs has destrooyed chicken in this country....and it has been happening all over the country. And most of the time, the chicken is contaminated. Maybe you want to eat poisoned chicken....me I don't want to. And since na Igbo affair as some of you people want to make it....what stops your governors from setting up policies/loans favourable to polutry farming? Better to eat chickens raised at home...than imports of dubious provenance. P.S: Here is this excerpt from the Guardian's report on the matter.... He said that the danger inherent in the consumption of imported poultry chicken included damage to human body organs. “This 1×40 ft trailer load of frozen imported chicken is a huge loss to the owner. “The danger in imported frozen chicken is the mode of preservation which is dangerous for human consumption. “The chemical content used for the preservation can be dangerous to health,” he said.

9jakohai:This is your problem Una go dey add Join news, according to the Original post show me where is says formalin,INSTEAD OF YOU SAYING IT, COS FROM THE POST WHAT I UNDERSTAND IT WAS ILLEGAL TO IMPORT FROZEN CHICKEN SIMPLE SO WHERE DID YOU MANUFACTURE FORMALIN FROM?? Read the link again and Highlight where it says FORMALIN ?? The fact is this all Meat has some form of preservatives on it, I buy meat in London from Turkey and Argentina, they have preservatives in them and how do you think we have Orange 24/7 in london all year round we have bananas if they do not contain preservatives. |

Jabioro: Notice the container is not refrigerated or covered with any kind of insulation. How fresh do you think that chicken is after being in hot sun during the journey from Lagos? You want to feed that to people? Or fed that to animals that people will eat? Then later we complain of short life expectancy or sudden death? As for me, I'm not knowingly going to eat or buy frozen chicken again, as I have seen some of the worst conditions for transporting and holding them. To those quoting tribalism: the Igbo importer knew they were committing a crime and sabotaging our local economy and local jobs for personal gain. Next time they can spend their efforts and money on legal means to make profits. 1 Like |

nextstep:Bro I get what you are talking about fine but I think we are asking the wrong question, the question we should be asking is who in Lagos allowed this fru from the ship? the customs are not talking about thier own shortfalls, so why are we giving them kudos for a JOB they never did, for all we knew they Customs have collecting money from this said importer,Now my point is if they have done thier JOB at point of entry then these chicken would be fresh, and directed to needed places ie IDP camps.These are the points am trying to raise. |
