You have said it all. Nigerians are crazily greedy with little or no regard for the poor man on the streets.

Frozen chicken costs less than live chicken but it's even expensive to preserve a chicken. Shylocks they are.

Most of those imported frozen chicken are not safe. Many are preserved with chemicals that are not safe for human consumption. Some of those chickens are suspected to be genetically modified

Poultry farmers at the ongoing Nigeria Poultry Show in Abeokuta, Ogun State, say activities of smugglers are crippling the poultry industry in the country.

One of the farmers and immediate past President of the Poultry Farmers Association (PAN), Dr. Ayoola Oduntan, said 75 per cent of the frozen chicken in the country were being smuggled in, which according to him, was killing the industry.

He said at present, chickens worth N2.5bn produced by local farmers were stocked in cold rooms nationwide without market.
Oduntan, who said people answered the call by the present government to go back to farm, regretted that the same government was failing to protect them from the hands of smugglers.

“You see, because of the smuggled chickens, chickens grown by local farmers don’t have enough market and there is a limit to which they can grow, so most of them are dying in the farms because of excessive weight,” he said.

He called on the government and other stakeholders to ensure strict enforcement of the existing law which bans poultry products importation. Also speaking, the new President of the association, Mr. Ezekiel Ibrahim, who lamented the activities of smugglers, said the association would collaborate with government at all levels to protect the industry by curbing the activities of smugglers of poultry products in the country.

The National Vice President, South West, of the association, Prince Bode Adetoyi, appealed to relevant government agencies to save the industry from the hands of smugglers whose activities he said threatened the survival of the industry.

Flood the market with local poultry products and it becomes unprofitable for smugglers. When local supply can't meet demands in terms of price,quality and quantity,there will always be market for smugglers.

Then think of how to minimize production cost and sell cheaper. Stop whining and get tó work.
