SOUTH MILWAUKEE WI. (GVE)- The National Agency For Food and Drugs
Administration and Control (NAFDAC), has warned lovers of noodles in
Nigeria over the purchase and sales of a particular
brand of noodles in
the country.
The food and drugs regulatory body in the country specified that a
certain Maggi noodles produced by Nestle India, should be avoided by
Nigerians.
It noted that these noodles contained excess lead and were therefore deemed unsafe and hazardous for human consumption.
“Nestle has recalled its Maggi instant noodles from stores across
India following the report by the Indian Food Safety Regulators of
probable lead contamination. Lead exposure causes an estimated 143,000
deaths a year worldwide.
“In view of the potential safety concerns on consumption of the lead
contaminated Maggi instant noodles, NAFDAC warns that Maggi instant
noodles produced by Nestle India should not be consumed.
“Departmental stores, wholesalers and retailers should also be
proactive in ensuring that such products are brought to NAFDAC if they
come across any, and under no circumstances should such products be
sold,” NAFDAC said.
