Modernisation and its impact on food safety has increasingly become an important factor in governance due to its effects on public health, agriculture, trade and investment, poverty, hunger and tourism. In Nigeria, the food value chain (Farm-to-Fork) is undergoing considerable transformation as Government intensifies its efforts to improve safety by reviewing and updating key components of the national food safety control system. Similarly, the agriculture and food industries are stepping up their food safety practices but the overall food safety situation is far from satisfactory.
