“It Is A Crime To Keep, Sell Or Distribute Fertiliser Without Approval Or Export Same In Nigeria.”

DAILY LAW TIPS by Onyekachi Umah, Esq.(Tip 237)

“IT IS A CRIME TO KEEP, SELL OR DISTRIBUTE FERTILISER
WITHOUT APPROVAL OR EXPORT SAME IN NIGERIA.”

Fertiliser is a government controlled commodity in Nigeria.
Federal government determines who sells, distributes, transports
and keeps custody of fertiliser as well as selling points.
It is a crime for any person to deal on fertiliser, sell,
distribute, convert, dump or transport fertiliser in any part of
Nigeria without approval of the Minister of Agriculture or his
delegate. It is also a crime to export fertiliser from Nigeria. The
offences are punishable with 10 years imprisonment without an
option of fine.

My authorities are sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10 and 11 of the
Fertiliser (Control) Act, 1992.
