GMO Potatoes In Nigerian Markets Unfit For Consumption, CSOs Warn

The adoption of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) in Nigeria is facing rejection as a coalition of over 100 civil society actors, farmers, scientists, legal practitioners, and academics, amongst others, have called for the discontinuation of the process.

GMOs are either plants, animals or microorganisms that have been subjected to biotechnology and processed into ingredients which are also genetically modified.
