The Kaduna State
Director of National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and
Control (NAFDAC), Dadi Natim Mullah, has re-established NAFDAC`s commitment to arrest Bread-bakers who use the banned potassium bromate in bread production.
He made the statement at a recent one-day seminar put together by the Association of Arewa
Master Bakers Forum and Bons Company China. According to him, the commission was appalled at the use of potassium bromate by bakeries in Kaduna state. He added that the agency’s officials would start to test bread
with an intent to confiscate bread with Potassium Bromate and apprehend owners of such bakery.
"Potassium bromate is still banned in
Nigeria but we are worried because some bakers still use it as additive
in flour to make bread,” he added.
