NAFDAC AND UNHYGIENIC BAKERIES

Few months ago, I was eating bread but I could not finish it because I encountered sand while chewing it. Disturbed by this, I called NAFDAC to report the incident.

A recent incident involving unhygienic bakery practices has led to a public complaint against NAFDAC and unclean bakeries. The complainant, Pius Awunah, recounted his experience of finding sand in his bread, which prompted him to report the matter to NAFDAC. The officer handling his call insisted on a physical visit to their office with the bread as evidence, despite Awunah's suggestion of submitting a photo and bakery details for investigation.

Awunah's suggestion was rejected, leaving the issue unresolved. He vowed to stop purchasing bread from that bakery and now shares his experience publicly to bring attention to the need for improved hygiene standards in Nigerian bakeries. Awunah also appealed to bakery owners to ensure bread production takes place under clean conditions, emphasizing that bread should contribute to good health, not cause illness among citizens already struggling with health issues from processed foods and adulterated products.
