The Edo State Consumer Protection Committee, in the early hours of today, November 9, uncovered a hub in New Benin Market where fake/chemical-induced Kpomo is being sold. According to the chairman of the committee, Osaro Iyamu, the committee received a tip-off on the unwholesome activities of some women making the unhygienic food item and acted on it. He mentioned that two women were arrested with their bad and offensive products at Efehi Street Junction, while others ran away. Iyamu said immediately after the suspects were arrested, some market women in their clusters confessed to their unwholesome business. He said the two suspects are in police custody for further investigation. The post Fake and chemical-induced kpomo factory uncovered in Edo appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
