Health implications of unhygienic meat
According to the Chairman, Nigerian Veterinary Medical Association, Lagos State Chapter, Dr. Mobolaji Alao, there are so many diseases that come from infected animals to human beings when such meats are consumed. He added that apart from the unhygienic environment that characterizes many abattoirs, over 61 per cent of all the pathogens known to man come from animals. “This is because all the procedures to ensure safety are not in place, so people get infected,” he added.
