The Director General of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), Mojisola Adeyeye, has said non-compliance with advisory guidelines is one of the reasons Nigerian food products are rejected in the United Kingdom (UK).
Mrs Adeyeye, while speaking at a press briefing in Abuja on Tuesday, said the unwillingness of exporters to comply with minimal sanitary measures also contributes to products being rejected.
She, however, said the agency held a scheduled side event with the UK Food Standard Agency (FSA) in order to change the narrative on the incidence of rejection of Nigerian food products in the international market.
