At the rally against GMOs, the demands were simple: the government must provide a justice system that puts people first over profit.

What we eat must not be US!

We must take back our food sovereignty and reclaim ownership of our lives!

Nigerians have a right to safe food! echnology in our food!

Nigerians have a right to safe food! We do not want this technology in our food and the government’s persistent approval of GMOs, means a total disregard for the rights of the people and exposes the vested interest in this technology! #BanGMOs

GMOs are a false solution to hunger. Nigerians are simply hungry because of a breakdown within the value supply chain: our roads are bad, our storage facilities are collapsing/nonexistent and, as a result, farmers can’t reach the markets. Fix the supply chain, and we fix our food Os

Smallholder farmers feed the nation, not these foreign corporations, no matter what they try to sell us. Our fathers and mothers have been feeding this country for centuries with saved seeds, local knowledge, their own hands. What exactly is Monsanto offering that our own farmers okeoghene @NnimmoB @CAPPAfrica @kebetkachewomen @ERAFoEN1 @SocialActionNg @GMOFreeNigeria @Afsafrica @FMEnvng @followlasg @FmardNg @YouthinAgroNet @GRVlagos @DrCassey @IPESfood @Food_Affairs

If you don’t know what a GMO is: it simply means that a corporation took a plant, changed its DNA in a laboratory, patented it, and now sells it to our farmers who can never save the seeds again. Importing GMO crops and products into our country is saying yes to losing our food joyce_okeoghene @NnimmoB @CAPPAfrica @kebetkachewomen @ERAFoEN1 @SocialActionNg @GMOFreeNigeria @Afsafrica @FMEnvng @followlasg @FmardNg @YouthinAgroNet @GRVlagos @DrCassey @IPESfood @Food_Affairs

Agroecology; organic farming, regenerative agriculture, agroforestry, these are the proven methods that work. They improve soil, protect biodiversity, and give farmers actual ownership of their seeds. This is we are asking Nigeria to invest in! Real indigenous knowledge built by l and history! #BanGMOs

The corporations say GMOs address food insecurity but Nigerian farmers are telling a different story. Their reports claim that productivity drops in the second planting season and they have to buy new seeds constantly. We know someone is lying, and we know it is not the farmers! ne @NnimmoB @CAPPAfrica @kebetkachewomen @ERAFoEN1 @SocialActionNg @GMOFreeNigeria @Afsafrica @FMEnvng @followlasg @FmardNg @FmardNg @YouthinAgroNet @DrCassey

The @houseofrepsnigeria moved a motion to suspend GMOs in 2024, and even held a public hearing. But nothing has happened since then. The permits are still active, and these GMO products are still on our shelves, unbeknownst to the unsuspecting general public. #BanGMOs

About eighty percent (80% ) of GMOs are engineered to be herbicide-tolerant, and the herbicide is supposed to kill the target weeds. But what do we do when they end up also killing the soil microorganisms keeping farmland alive, and running into our groundwater? #BanGMOs

In case you don’t know, once GMO, through cross-pollination contaminates the genetic pool, it cannot be undone, and we will end up losing our biodiversity, permanently. Isn’t this enough to call for total ban on bringing GMOs into Nigeria, a country that has rich biodiversity and joyce_okeoghene @NnimmoB @CAPPAfrica @kebetkachewomen @ERAFoEN1 @SocialActionNg @GMOFreeNigeria @Afsafrica @FMEnvng @followlasg @YouthinAgroNet @FmardNg

In 2024, South Africa’s Supreme Court of Appeal struck down a GMO maize approval for lack of environmental impact assessment and using the wrong procedure. This same judgement was upheld by its Constitutional Court in November 2025. We cannot claim that precedents don’t exist! ene @NnimmoB @CAPPAfrica @kebetkachewomen @ERAFoEN1 @SocialActionNg @GMOFreeNigeria @Afsafrica @FMEnvng @followlasg @FmardNg @YouthinAgroNet

We have found over 50 brands of imported GMO-containing products on Nigerian supermarket shelves across 10 cities. These include everyday cereals, vegetable oils, syrups, snacks, food spices and others. The question of who is regulating imported GMO-containing foods in our market ed. #BanGMOs
@FmardNg @YouthinAgroNet @FMEnvng @followlasg

Over 30 countries have banned GMOs, and Nigeria, despite having the same evidence, continue to issue more approvals! At some point you have to ask who exactly is being served here. #BanGMOs

The toxins in GMO crops designed to kill crop pests end up reaching humans and babies in the womb and could lead to allergies, miscarriage, and cancer! #foodnotpoison #BanGMOs

In India, poor productivity and other failed promises of GMOs have led to thousands of farmer suicides! In Punjab alone, the area under cotton production has declined by forty-six per cent (46%) in 2024, and almost all cotton seeds are being controlled by the multinational nto. #BanGMOs
