Do you know that meats slaughtered in any illegal abattoir may be dangerous to human health?
.
How?
.
They are not tested by any competent Veterinary Doctors to certify their safety consumption level for human.
.
Earlier in the year, some butchers in the state dared government's ability to bite as they vowed never to comply with the directive to distribute meat, particularly beef, using the approved Eko Meat Vans.
.
The butchers, under the Umbrella of Lagos Island Associations, particularly, took government to court to contest the use of Eko Meat Vans. Their grouse was that the vans were too few and might be too expensive to hire since they were contracted to private operators.
.
The development, it was said, posed enormous challenge to the administration's new law to check the way meat is being transported in the state.
.
Government set up a task-force to arrest people who use motorcycles, wheelbarrows and other unhygienic means to transport meat in the state. The provision of the new law disallows anyone to convey meat from the abattoir to any part of Lagos State except by Eko Meat Vans, while the services of the vans had been contracted out.
That is just the reason why we have to be very careful with whatever we eat nowadays cos anything might be dangerous. It is well.
