Kenyan MoH Warns Against Aflatoxin in Maize Flour
May 16, 2024, 02:00 AM
The Kenyan Ministry of Health (MoH) has issued a warning regarding a popular brand of maize flour that has been found to contain high levels of aflatoxin, making it unfit for human consumption. The Ministry has ordered counties to destroy all contaminated maize flour and seize existing stock in the market. Additionally, the government has scaled up surveillance of all food products to ensure safety. This move follows a broader aflatoxin scare that has prompted heightened measures to protect public health.
