Dr Fijabi, had in 2007, bought about N12 million worth of Fanta and Sprite drinks from Coca Cola Ltd, and exported same to the United Kingdom.
*However, on reaching England, under Health and Safety regulations, the authorities tested the products and found them to contain "poisonous levels of Benzoic Acid* *and Sunset addictive" and therefore declared "unfit for human consumption".*
*The whole export consignment was consequently destroyed.*
*Dr Fijabi therefore, sued Coca Cola for Negligence, breach of duty of care to its customers, and loss of earnings.*
*Fine.*
*Now comes the interesting part - The Almighty Coca Cola offered only one defense in court :*
*That Mr Fijabi did not tell them he was going to Export the Fanta and Sprite to England;*
*That they were indeed manufactured "FOR LOCAL CONSUMPTION* *ONLY."*
*What*
*For local consumption?*
*what Coca Cola Bottling Company is telling us, is that,If they knew the Fanta and Sprite were to be exported to England, they would not have added so much poisonous acid;*
*But for the people of Nigeria, it is normal to poison us.*

*That is the official courtroom statement of Coca Cola Bottling Company of Nigeria.*
*Yesterday, The Lagos High Court under Justice Adedayo Oyebanji, was 'crying' when She gave judgement against Coca Cola, declaring them callous and negligent.*
*She accused NAFDAC for not carrying out proper laboratory checks on 'minerals' production in Nigeria.*

_*"Cancer" was listed as one of the ailments that the present Fanta and sprite can cause, especially if taken with Vitamin C tablets.*_

And don't be surprised if NAFDAC defends Coca-Cola. That's the kind of regulatory agencies we have here in Nigeria.

You’re a 100% right. Nigerians are being poisoned by their everyday basic food. Bread is the main culprit. I have had to close down my bakery in Nigeria because I refuse to add chemicals to my ingredients which cause cancer as a result this affects the appearance. The inside of the bread looks more yellow than white because of the butter. Most Nigerians prefer the one that looks white and clear but this is the killer bread especially the popular agege bread. The white colour is as a result of a bleach compound which most bakers add to their dough. This compound also makes the dough rise a lot. Nafdac have decided to turn a blind eye to this as a result many Nigerians are dying from cancer everyday. Our government doesn’t care for its citizens. What a sham for a country.
