EU Bans Food Exports From Nigeria

The European Union has banned some food exports from Nigeria. Among the food items banned includes beans, sesame seeds, melon seeds, dried fish and meat, peanut chips and palm oil.





A statement from the European Food Safety Authority says the food substances were banned because they contained ‘a high level of unauthorized pesticide.’

Nigerian beans was banned because it contained between 0.03mg per kg to 4.6mg/kg of dichlorvos pesticide when the acceptable maximum residue limit is 0.01mg/kg. The ban on the food substances will expire in 2016.

only be an increase in prices but i can assure you that SDK go continue to swallow Melon seeds soup.*catwalks out of post*

  3. This is bad for Nigeria
    As an agriculturist, it means we have to really work hard to be able to export crops like cocoa and groundnut like we do I the past
    But cone to think of it if the other products we're banned cause of pesticide, why did they ban our palm oil
    Is this US trying to frustrate us because we didn't accept the gay law?

  14. Even with the fall in oil prices and devaluation of Naira and now the ban of exporting food stuffs Nigeria will tell you God will help us. My take is God will not help you if you don't take the necessary steps in doing your path which is the right thing first like strengthening our institutions Education healthcare, diversifying the economic, tourism & infrastructure etc
