”Most of the bakeries did not meet the minimum requirements to operate while others were not registered with the agency.

“NAFDAC in Kaduna has embarked on massive surveillance on bakeries in the state as part of efforts to ensure strict compliance to standards.

“The focus of the re – appraisal visit to the bakeries by NAFDAC in the state is to ensure that bakers regularise their licences, adhere to Good Hygiene Practice, among other stipulated laid down regulatory requirements.

“During the visit, total of six defaulting bakeries were placed on HOLD as first line of sanction for various irregularities.

‘`The fact that people see bread and other products with NAFDAC number does not mean they are fully registered because some people fake the numbers by themselves.

“These products are not certified and have not gotten licence from us, so we are closing them down and we will make sure they are not seen in the market for consumption,’’he said.

“The Agency will always remain resolute in the discharge of its responsibilities of safeguarding public health and will not hesitate in applying the full wrath of the law on any non – compliant and violating manufacturer.’’(NAN)

The Borno State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) on Saturday said it spent over N2 billion distributing food items and condiments to IDPs in the last four years. SEMA’s chairman, Alhaji Satomi Ahmad, made the disclosure in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Maiduguri. Ahmad said that the amount went into procurement and distribution of foodstuffs, firewood, drugs and condiments to persons displaced by Boko Haram insurgency in the state. He said that the gesture was to augment the Federal Government and development agencies’ efforts to support the displaced persons and address humanitarian crisis. “Previously, the agency spent about N20 million on procurement and distribution of firewood alone to displaced households in the camps and liberated communities. “The trend resulted in unprecedented upsurge in the demand and supply of firewood in the state. “This also naturally resulted in depletion of forest resources and destruction of the environment which left us with no options than to start using charcoal,” he said. Satomi said the choice of charcoal came with high cost as the initial funds for firewood went up astronomically. The chairman said the agency had also concluded arrangements to de-worm and immunise all children in IDPs camps and liberated communities. He said that the exercise was designed to protect children against diseases, reduce morbidity and mortality. According to him, the agency had deployed nine mobile clinics to enhance rapid response and disaster management services in the state.
