FG flags off food safety, sanitation campaign

According to News reaching from Daily independent.......

The Federal Government, through the office of the Special Adviser to the President on Ethics and Values, has concluded plans to flag off food safety and sanitation campaign in all the 36 states of the federation, including the FCT.
The Special Adviser to the President on Ethics and Values, Sarah Jibril, disclosed this while speaking with Daily Independent at the end of the launch of the programme in Kogi State.
She noted that the launch of the programme is aimed at saving lives through promotion of food safety and environmental sanitation.
This, she reiterated, would prevent illnesses caused by contaminated food, which, according to her, “is one of the leading causes of sufferings and deaths in the developing world and also affects millions of people in all countries.”
Speaking through her Chief Press Secretary, Abel Nwabuche, Jibril stressed that: “With the increase and constant movement of people from one country to the other, and the presence of refugees and tourists, the chances of high risk of contacting diseases through contaminated food cannot be overemphasized.”
Responding to inquiries from Daily Independent, National President of Royal Life Saving Society of Nigeria, Boniface Ihesiulor, an organisation that is partnering the Federal Government to execute the programme, said the programme is targeting “to train and examine candidates in all subjects of life-saving, lifeguard, food safety and hygiene; establish and maintain life saving centres across the nation with emergency medical services.”
