NAFDAC to sample Indomie noodles and seasoning, prompted by cancer scare.

The National Agency for Food Drugs Administration and Control will commence test on samples of Indomie noodles and seasoning today May 2.

This comes as a reaction on the recalling of indomie noodles by Taiwan and Malaysian authorities, following the discovery of ethylene oxide, a cancer-causing agent.

“It should be noted that Indomie noodles have been banned from being imported into the country for many years. It is one of the foods on the government prohibition list. It is not allowed in Nigeria, and therefore not registered by NAFDAC,” says the DG, Mojisola Adeyeye.
