News just filtered in that NAFDAC has banned the sale of sniper, the
most dreaded rat killer that has been trending recently among depressed youths
who snuff out their young lives for any little excuse ranging from heart break
from partner, failure in school, hardship et al. through the direct use of the
dreaded rat killer.
In the piece I titled, BUHARI /NATIONAL ASSEMBLY BAN SELL OF SNIPER
OVER THE COUNTER NOW
The piece was published 29days ago on my blog and shared across social
media platforms. Below is the link to the piece and the details.
I admonished FG/ National Assembly to ban sell of sniper over the
counter restricting its sell only after due approval just like the ban of
Codeine to help save the lives of our youths.
This final response to the piece is a cheering news and calls for commendation
considering the high number of lives we have lost recently to this trend.
The National Food, Drug Administration Control (NAFDAC) has ordered agro-dealers to withdraw popular agricultural pesticide, Sniper, from open markets and supermarkets, to reduce its use for suicide across the country.
The federal government yesterday placed a restriction on the sale and use of the fatal agro-chemical product, Sniper.
The development was made public by NAFDAC’s director, Veterinary Medicine and Allied Products Directorate, Dr Bukar Usman, at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), Ibadan on Wednesday, June 19, Leadership reports.
Since Sniper hits the Nigerian market, it has become the favourite of most Nigerians, especially the poor for killing mosquitoes and other pests. Similarly, the product has also been abused by many as they use it to commit suicide.
