[size=15pt]Nigeria: Controversy Over Genetically Modified Seeds[/size]

By Debo Oladimeji

CIVIL society groups in Lagos recently petitioned the Federal Government against any attempt to introduce Genetically Modified (GM) foods or Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) into the agricultural sector of the country.

In the petition, which was submitted to the office of Lagos State governor, the groups called for a ban on GM seeds which some foreign biotechnology corporations are planning to introduce into Nigeria through the Federal Ministry of Agriculture. The petitioners also cautioned the Senate against passing the Bio-Safety Bill.

Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, Leader of Nigerians Against GMOs, said one of the problems with GM seeds is that it is a foreign technology. "It is a creation of foreign biotech firms. When they give you seeds, the seeds cannot be replanted. Which means that they own the patent rights for the seeds. So, every time you need to replant, you have to go back to them to buy the seeds. Now, in the process of planting the seeds and using their chemicals, you kill your own soil. It is made up of bacterial and other living things. Monsanto's system kills the soil. It now makes your land only suitable for their own seeds. That is the main problem of dependency. That means local farmers will have to pay double to buy GM seeds.

"Another factor is contamination. When you grow this plant on your soil, the pollen from them go and mix with your natural breed. When that happens, your natural breed becomes genetically modified. There are a lot of bigger factors involved here."

According to him, what now happens is that when they now spray Monsanto herbicides, the plants will not die but the weeds will die. "If you don't alter that gene, everything will die. So they change the plants, they don't change their chemicals. Independent researches have shown that these things lead to cancer. Research done by scientists on the effect of human exposure to such chemicals and foods linked GMO's to stunted growth, impaired immune systems, bleeding stomachs, abnormal and potentially precancerous cell growth in the intestines, reduced digestive enzymes among others."

He disclosed that many of the G8 countries have banned GM seeds. "Germany, France, Japan, Italy, England have banned GMOs. It is only Canada and America that allow GM seeds. Biotechnology has been existing in America since 1992. There is a company called Eulocyte. They announced in 2001 that they had developed a corn variety that has a spermicide effect. So if you eat their corn you cannot reproduce."

"Our government needs to invest in laboratories, needs to pay our scientists well, needs to provide 24-hour electricity so that we can do genetic experiment and then they can create things for us."

On his part, Dr. Martin Fregene, an agricultural biotech expert and a senior researcher at Donald Danforth Plant Science Centre, United States, but now a Senior Technical Assistant to the Agriculture Minister, Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, adding that the current Biosafety Bill has gone through public hearing twice in the National Assembly and it is untrue that the Senate is trying to pass a bill without consulting the public.

"As a matter of fact, during the Musa Yar'Adua's regime, the National Assembly did public hearing, and got views from many Nigerians then. The Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (FMARD) is one of the agencies of government that support the National Biosafety Bill which promotes the responsible use of new technologies," Fregene said.

He added that there are no GMO seeds being grown in Nigeria at the moment; no local or foreign seed company can introduce GMOs into Nigeria without a regulatory approval from the Federal Ministry of Environment. "None of the seeds given out under the Agric Minister's Growth Enhancement Support Scheme (GES) is GMO seed. As a matter of fact, it is a crime in most countries of the world, including Nigeria, to hand out GMO seeds without regulatory approval."

According to him, there is no evidence that GMOs affect the soil. "Over a trillion meals have been served worldwide that include GM crops. There has not been a single report of death or sickness. GM crops are the most regulated items in the world by the way. On the other hand, there is documented evidence of over 100 deaths from consumption of organic foods, especially bean sprouts," he said.

Coordinator, Open Forum on Agricultural Biotechnology in Africa, Nigeria Chapter and Chief Scientific Officer, National Biotechnology Development Agency (NABDA), Lugbe, Abuja, Mrs. Rose M. Gidado, said hybrid seeds are just improved seeds produced using the conventional agricultural tools while GMO seeds are seeds produced by genetic engineering tools. "They are improved to either resist diseases or for nutritional enhancement. GMO seeds do not cause cancer. Monsanto is a leader in both conventional hybrid maize as well as hybrid genetically-modified maize. Neither of these seeds is sterile. Either can be significantly more productive than traditional, non-hybrid maize varieties," she said.

Nigeria, she revealed, signed and ratified the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety. "Parties to this protocol are expected to develop their administrative and regulatory framework in order to domesticate modern biotechnology. It is based on this that Nigeria developed the Biosafety Bill for the enactment of a Biosafety Law."

The way forward, according to her, is to have a Biosafety Law in place. "The Minister of Agriculture is not introducing GMOs to Nigeria. There is no legal framework for the commercialization of GMOs in Nigeria."

She said that it is not true that GM seeds damage the soil. "Monsanto actively advocates farm management practices that allow sustainable intensification of agricultural production." Gidado also debunked the notion that farmers will become dependent on foreign seed companies. "In fact, Monsanto actively licenses its biotech traits to other seed companies so that farmers can choose from a wide range of suppliers. Monsanto enables choice. If farmers choose to buy seeds with Monsanto's biotech traits, that is because they have seen the value that these traits provide and are willing to pay a premium for them in exchange for the increased yield that they enable," she said.

As a matter of corporate policy, she said, Monsanto only markets biotech seeds in areas where they enjoy broad political support, broad farmer's demand and where there is a predictable, functioning regulatory system which encourages innovation and protects intellectual property rights. "Monsanto will not sell any GM seeds in Nigeria without a system of rules and regulations that achieves these goals."

Gidado said the European Commission and European courts (including France's Supreme Court), twice have declared that these politically motivated bans on GM seeds in some countries as illegal and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has stated that they lack any valid scientific justification. Moreover, these same countries are highly dependent on imports of biotech crops including soybeans.

She explained that, hybrid seeds produce a higher yield in the first year, but can't guarantee the same "hybrid vigor" in the second generation. "For this reason, professional farmers worldwide choose to buy and plant new hybrid seeds every year. Farmers make the decision whether to purchase hybrid seeds or non-hybrid seeds." She added that opening the Nigerian market to genetically modified seeds would not "force" farmers to buy seeds from Monsanto.

The position of the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) with its headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya on GMOs and the private sector involvement in agriculture in Africa is also instructive. According to AGRA's Communication Director, Sylvia Mwuchili, AGRA welcomes and encourages open and inclusive debate on GMOs.

"AGRA itself does not invest in the development of GMOs or related genetic engineering activities. It supports the latest technological developments in conventional plant breeding efforts that build on and maintain the strengths of conventionally developed hybrids, improving their resilience in the face of pests, diseases and drought, and their efficiency in using available moisture and nutrients", Mwuchili said.

According to her, AGRA currently works with 16 National Research Institutes across Africa to put better seeds in the hands of farmers through conventional breeding programmes that are driving up productivity. She said that AGRA has been accused of trying to force regional economic communities (RECs) and individual countries to have draconian seed laws which will be to the benefit of large corporations and not small scale farmers, who neither have means or knowledge to patent their seed varieties.

"The seed policies and regulations of most African countries are outdated holdovers from an earlier era in which the state had responsibility for the entire seed value chain: developing improved varieties, testing them, releasing them for commercial use, producing certified seeds, and distributing (selling) the improved varieties to farmers."

Mwuchili disclosed that as with many such state-run enterprises, the lack of healthy competition and market forces, as well as the prevalence of entrenched bureaucratic interests, often mitigate against the efficient and cost effective delivery of improved seeds to farmers.

In general terms, she said AGRA believes in liberalizing seed policies, which is to say, reducing the stranglehold of the state on the seed industry and making room for African-owned and operated private seed companies to produce high-quality certified seeds that farmers can purchase in appropriate quantities and at affordable prices.

"To truly improve the productivity and profitability of smallholders, we advocate for the development of robust, well-adapted varieties and hybrids that can thrive in local agro-ecologies. Farmer preferences figure prominently in the development process, and the small-to-mid-sized private seed companies must respond to the needs of farmers, or they will simply go out of business," she said.

This, according to her, includes delivering certified seeds of improved, well-adapted crops to farmers when they need them and where they need them, and at affordable prices.

"While AGRA aims at strengthening the formal private seed sector in Africa, it also recognizes the importance of community-based seed enterprises and farmer-to-farmer seed exchanges. AGRA does not advocate for or against GMOs. We support conventional breeding research and development that improves the productivity of locally adapted crops and that involves farmers in the testing and selection process," she said.

According to Professor Ifeoma Okoye, Professor of Radiology, College of Medicine, University of Nigeria, Nsukka unregulated use of hormones, additives, antibiotics, preservatives in foods, over-processed foods, inorganic foods, use of sweeteners, easy availability of 'energy-dense nutrient poor' food products have all contributed to poor dietary habits and obesity and thus the current epidemic of Non-Communicable Diseases( NCDs).

"Thus an effective way to battle NCDs is to keep our immune cells strong and not fill ourselves with bad foods/lifestyle. Anti-oxidants obtained from consumption of adequate amounts of fruits, vegetables and exercise are needed to neutralize this free radical overload in the body and ensure a strong immune system. Anti-oxidants are the Holy Grail of youth and a disease-free life," she said.
