Lagos State Government Warns Residents Against Consumption of Exhumed Poultry Now in Circulation

The Lagos State Government has warned the public against consuming ex­humed imported poul­try produce such as chicken and turkey meat currently being sold to unsuspecting buyers in the state.

The state’s Commission­er for Agriculture, Mr. To­yin Suarau, said the poultry produce were seized and destroyed by the Ni­geria Customs Service in Badagry but some people later exhumed it for sale. He warned that they are poi­sonous and could lead to death if consumed.

He also noted that the imported poultry produce were preserved with chemicals like formalin which is poison­ous, and kills slowly.
