Dis is a YAMARITA story

U can ask Olamide

Yams that they deprived us, were rejected by US.. abeg #bring back our yam

Nonsense

kinguwem:
This government has nothing to offer. Why export yams in the raw form? The yams should have been processed. We need agricultural experts to man that Ministry. This old man lacks ideas to man the Ministry of Agriculture.

all our ministers are useless including the minister of petroleum..

Give us ur own idea to solve te problem of herdsmen stop abusing d minister.

magoo10:
The worst agriculture minister infected by the spirit of dullard

From wanting to import grass for cows to suggesting compulsory grazing land in every state for the murderous herdsmen and now yams.
This govt has failed from head to toe.

So, of all the agric agric buhari dey promote, na poor quality yam una still produce.... Dey must v bin harvested frm daura

The USA has a policy against importation of food stuff for disease control purpose.

I was warned not to bring food stuff when I travelled.

It might not be unconnected with that policy.

thundafire:
Lies NIGERIA has 1 of dey best yams in the world y can't dey say US not interested in the yam business

Even if they have one of the best ,there are still standard issues.
The same US are importing yams from Ghana

APC keep disgracing Nigeria

thundafire:
Lies NIGERIA has 1 of dey best yams in the world y can't dey say US not interested in the yam business

Yes Nigeria has the best yam in the world. We imported Nigeria yams same time and the USA never rejected it. But it's a risky business, maybe it's got here bad and not safe for consumption, and it's won't be cleared.

belindar:
Who are they exporting the yam to in USA in the first place. Are they not Nigerian and Africans. The stupid minister is announcing that Nigeria export yam all of very the world as if white people eat. Who are the consumers of the yam been exported?

They are consumers in high demand. Tons of yams are imported into the USA in Ghana, it's just a risky business and the Nigeria govt did it at the wrong time and means all Yams will be bad.. African food sell here alot Generally food.

They are so many mistakes they may have made,
1. What type of yam was exported? You can't just pick up yams and ship, it takes more than 30days for yams to get to the Usa, so the yams must be resilient .

2. What's the time of the season was it's exported? It's when the yams have gone dried and used for planting?

3. How was it handled?

4. What kind of container was used to export it?
To get good at this business, the first shipment is always a BIG Loss, Like everything going bad.

If not be for mouth, shey na for nose abi for ear?
BMC propaganda learners.

You no get any iota of sense.

You think the active ingredients in food are determined/known in the taste it gives?

I pity your ignorance.

BETTER...becoz we are dying with hunger and they are exporting of our food to other countries just for dollar..MUMU

Because they hide cocaine inside yam

curvilicious:
Which kind thing be this one again now? I was hoping for forex.
America shld just tell us they are broke & cant afford our yams #shikena

i watched that news on ait, bobo the entire yams been spoil. Its not aabout bad quality, the entire yams spoil patapata. Infact what they exported was like old yams that was harvested since last yr, cos new yams for no quick rotten within 3months.

dunkem21:
I remember asking the sense in exporting yams then while the price of yam skyrocketed locally.

The implication is that all the yams sent to the US was a waste of efforts and resources while we are made to pay indirectly for those delusional lapse.

We need fire brand economy drivers.

Ahhh! So you want the price of yam to crash locally? What happens to the farmer? How does he send his children to good schools, foot medical bills etcetera? Na wa for some Nigerians o! Anybody wey wan chop yam wey no fit buy am next year make dem farm yam. Wicked people everywhere! Una think say to farm dey easy?

maybe they sent via ship and it got spoilt on the way

poor quality ke? did Donald trump pound the yam and found lumps in the pounded yam?

hu no go reject apc yam. blood yam

thundafire:
Lies NIGERIA has 1 of dey best yams in the world y can't dey say US not interested in the yam business

If u buy yam with your money, you won't come out with this tripe!
Quantity has no correlation with quality sweetie.

The lord will see us true

Nigeria masses hv nt see this yam, a tuber of yam is sold @450[small one] now u want to export yam to US, be wise Mr commissioner

Nigeria's Minister of agriculture, Audu Ogbeh has said that the United States rejected yam exports from Nigeria because of their poor quality.


In June, Nigeria exported yams to China, United Kingdom and US as part of efforts to reduce dependence on oil and increase income from the agricultural sector.


The Minister vowed to investigate both the exporting company and officials of the ministry’s department of quarantine for allowing “such substandard good to leave the shores of the country”.


“Some consignment of yams were exported from Nigeria to the United States and according to reports we have today, they were found to be of poor quality,” he said.




“We will be investigating both the company that exported it and our quarantine department to check and find out why such a consignment left here.”


Ogbeh also said the price of rice will reduce substantially in the “next one month”.


The Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), Nigerian Customs Service, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) and Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) were charged with the responsibility of ensuring that yams exported were properly checked and certified.


Others are Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC), Nigerian Agricultural Quarantine Service (NAQS), Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), National Agricultural Seed Council (NASC).
