GMO FOOD UNDER LABORATORY CHECK
GM technology has been around for the past 20 years, and today, 70-80% of the foods in the United States,contain ingredients that have been genetically modified.
Many of the most influential regulatory agencies and organizations that study the safety of the food supply, including the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, the American Medical Association, the World Health Organization, Health Canada, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the National Academy of Sciences, have found genetically modified food ingredients are safe and there are no negative health effects associated with their use.
Ingredients grown using GM technology require fewer pesticides, less water and keep production costs down. In fact, GM technology helps reduce the price of crops used for food, such as corn, soybeans and sugar beets by as much as 15-30%.GM technology allows farmers to use fewer chemicals, such as pesticides. It also helps them utilize more environmentally friendly planting techniques that cut down on soil erosion, greenhouse gas emissions and water use.One in eight people among the world’s growing population of seven billion do not have enough to eat, and safe and effective methods of food production, like crops produced through GM technology, can help us feed the hungry and malnourished in developing nations around the world.

No government that tries making primary duty secondary and secondary duty primary, succeeds.  Of all the primary duties of the government, education is sacrosanct to the liberation of the people and mental empowerment.

If the state cannot manage the public schools again, it should humbly give the schools back to their original owners. There are missionary schools among these public schools and during the time of baba awolowo that these people deceitfully claimed to be following, education up to secondary school was totally free and many among them benefitted even on scholarship
