Lagos arrests butchers selling tuberculosis infected beef

-
THE Lagos State government, yesterday, arrested three butchers selling tuberculosis infected beef, even as it clamped down on three illegal slaughter slabs in the state.

The butchers were arrested at Alapere-Ketu axis of state by a team of the Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences task force, led by the chairman, Mr. Bayo Sulaiman.
The three illegal slaughter slabs were at Ajegunle, Alapere and Ajelogo.

Dr. Nureini Funsho blamed the porous state of the country’s borders, saying: “Most of the cows slaughtered in Lagos, where traders believe that demands for beef is very high, are brought from neighbouring land-locked West Africa countries. And due to the porous borders in the country, the traders aren’t checked.”
