Hmmm!!! Folks, let
us say the truth and shame the devil. Many Nigerian non-oil products exporters
have been defrauded of huge amount of money in the process of exporting agricultural
commodities and solid minerals to foreign countries. Do you know why? They were
not trained on export operations, management, documentations and the best
methods of payment in export trade. This is terrible!!! Nigerians cannot
continue to lose money to foreigners in the course of export business. Exporters,
would you like to keep on being scammed? Why don’t you get a practical manual
that explains the stages of export trade from processing and packaging of
commodities to receipt of payment by the foreign buyers? It explains export
operations, export management, export documentations and methods of payment in
export trade? Yes, it is a contemporary step-by-step guide to export trade. It
tells all the contemporary dynamics in export trade. To get it, click on this

Spokesperson for NAQS, Dr. Chigozie Nwodo, in a statement made
available to newsmen in Abuja, stated that Nigerian agro-commodities are
rejected abroad, because exporters were not following the guidelines, and are
also smuggling consignments that were not meant for export.
While highlighting the guidelines, Dr. Nwodo
was quoted as saying, “The sanitary must be in
accordance with the conditions on the import permit of the destination country.
The exporter must submit the items for inspection and certification by NAQS,
and obtain the applicable certificate prior to shipment.
“The produce intended for
export must be free of harmful organisms or toxic substances, and all
information required in the sanitary/ phytosanitary certificate must be
provided legibly in print. Forgery and alteration of certificate will render
the certificate invalid and make products subject to rejection.
“Any alteration in the date
on the certificate, type of consignment, weight and volume of consignment, and
authorised signature on the certificate renders it invalid, as certificate with
mutilated particulars is unacceptable.”
He added that wrong labelling is
another obstacle, because the information on the label of the cargo must be
descriptive of the exact contents of the cargo, as indicated in the sanitary
and phytosanitary certificates.
He continued: “Concealment
of strange agro-produce in a consignment of certified commodity, concealment of
an uncertified agricultural item in the consignment of a certified produce
earns total rejection.
“Improper export procedure,
certain products require the exporter to give the NAQS advance notification of
country to which export is intended. Exporting prohibited items are not
accepted because some countries prohibit the export of certain agricultural
items. Cargo of products on the prohibition list of the destination is liable
to rejection at the port of entry.”
Other guidelines are absence of
additional declaration; some countries require declarations like date of
harvest, place of harvest, whether there are any special handling precautions
in addition to the sanitary/phytosanitary certificate.
“Use of unapproved fumigants,
the detection of residues of unapproved fumigants in the produce intended for
export may constitute basis for rejection of the cargo.” (Guardian)
