A new research has shown the unbelievably sad infiltration of dangerously fake yam flour into Nigerian markets.

Prof. Christian Anieke, the Vice Chancellor of Godfrey Okoye
University, Enugu, raised the alarm on Saturday that the institution had
discovered adulterated yam flour products in the Nigerian market.
Anieke, according to the News Agency of Nigeria, stated this during the 4th Convocation of the institution.
He said that the institution had a massive project of DNA analysis
and sequencing of tropical fishes, plants and yam species in the
community led by Prof. George Ude.
He said, “For the first time, a lot of unknown fish types in
our community have been identified, analysed and entered in the DNA
world data bank.
“This is one service we have rendered to place our country on the world map of fruitful research results.
“The sequencing of various yam species has helped us in
separating the sheep from the goat by discovering a lot of adulterated
yam flour products with the DNA sequencing tools.”
The vice chancellor said the institution wished to partner relevant
government agencies and factories in the project to achieve good
standard in food production.
He said, “If we really want to achieve good standard in food
production and make agriculture a big foreign exchange earner, we must
address the issue of fake products.
“Our institution is ready to work with our government agencies
in the analysis of farm products to ensure their sanctity and
harmlessness.”
Anieke pledged that the institution would leverage on its
partnership with the International Institute for Tropical Agriculture to
produce new cassava species with better yields.
He said, “We have continued to develop our palm tree for palm
oil production and we plan to increase the number of our palm trees to
15,000 trees.
“With this increase, we hope to meet partly the demand for palm oil in our state.
“We, therefore, plead with the state government to give us
wings to fly by doing the road that leads to our main campus at Ugwuomu
Nike as this will hasten the development of the university farms.”
