sunnychibs: This is not really a village people something! It depends on how and where the processed flour was made and kept. Some people actually add some preservatives which sometimes turns out to be poisonous.. A friend of mine and his family nearly died after the mum bought okpa flour from the market. Thank God their father wasn't around and so he didn't partake in the meal. He was the one who rushed them to the hospital if not, they would all have died... Its just a clear picture of the so called preservatives used in the flour. God go sha save us... 2 Likes |

It’s poison. It’s not Amala. Amala dudu is made from yam! Nigerian police is so lazy. They should be looking for a killer or maybe it was suicide carried out by the mother. 1 Like |

AreaFada2:Thank you bro. That was the part that confused me. I know yam has no toxicity levels. I suspected cassava was added to the mix and your comment reinforces my belief. Thanks. 1 Like |

Reminds me of a family whose father stored Atrazine (a white powdery toxic herbicide) in the store. In his absence, the family wanted to make Amala but yam flour wasn’t enough, the children remembered Daddy kept ‘some’ in the store, went for it and added it to the pot to make the Amala sufficient. Well, they all had to be rushed to the hospital save for the father who met them in a critical condition. Lets be safe y’all |

tat123: RIP to the deceased and get well soon to the father. Just looking at the colour of that food should tell one that it's loaded with poison. As white as yam is, yet amala is this dark and black. What else could make white to be dark other than bacteria, fungi and other poisonous substances? So over to amala eaters. Be warned and have a rethink on this your ancestors delicacy. This is a 21st century, there are a 1000 and one substitutes and a 1000 ways of making a healthy amala flour. |

ValCon888:Get my point clear. No matter how u prepare yam flour, it can never be poisonous. Some species of yam tuber(chinese yam) can be poisonous when processed with heat which leads to GIT disorder but wont generate cyanide. U need to have a knowledge of cyanide chemistry b4 u can come to such conclusion. I know of a root tuber plant called bitter cassava (Manihot utilisima) very rich in cyanide that was why it is called so and very poisonous. |
Re: Mother, Two Children Die In Ekiti After Eating Amala by Ademoore07(m): 8:57pm On Sep 19, 2019 |
oluadeez:Oga, cyanide is very poisonous even without addition of phostocin. The specie of yam used is what makes it poisonous. Have u heard of bitter cassava? Why was is not found in nigeria? It is because of its high cyanide content. |

ValCon888:Amala and cyanide..... Amala (yam flour Elubo) is made from Yam and sometimes unripe plantain. Cyanide is extracted in processing Cassava to make Garri. I have a feeling you are mixing Garri and Yam flour. I stand to be corrected. |

They are always saying something negative about the yorubas If it's not the food,it's the dressing or how they are 'superior' and God knows what else .To think that many of their people actually like it more than someone like me 3 Likes 1 Share |
