Recent reports have raised concerns over fufu, a staple African dish, being contaminated with detergent.
This contamination happens during the preparation process. Reports from Aproko Doctor and an investigation carried out by Sunday Punch reveal that fufu producers add detergent to the cassava to speed up the process.
Consuming detergent-contaminated fufu poses health risks, including digestive issues and poisoning.
Authorities are urged to enforce stricter food safety regulations to prevent such incidents.
