Immediate Withdrawal of the Nutritionists Registration Council of Nigeria Bill, 2025 (HB.2659) thewatchersnetwork.org/petit…

"Take your hands away from that bil, DROP IT!"......Pastor Chris warns. Ladies and gentlemen, the National Assembly has a bill to create a Nutritionist Registration Council with the following: 1. Threat to National Food Sovereignty: The Bill creates an expansive licensing and regulatory monopoly that surrenders vital aspects of Nigeria's food and nutrition systems to a single professional interest group, funded by international organizations, open to international standards (which includes, GMOs, ultraprocessing, non cultural, etc. etc), undermining national control. 2. Criminalizing Indigenous Knowledge: Sections 23, 27, and 28 criminalize the "practice of nutrition" with heavy fines and up to two years in prison. Because the Bill leaves this term undefined, it threatens family food traditions, cultural diets, and community extension work. I hope we know what this means. The Practice of Nutrition is not defined, yet, if you're not a BSc holder, you can't practice nutrition. It will be left to a court to decide if the practice of nutrition involves the local chef who doesn't have a BSc, or the local recipe passed down generations. Nobody owns the right to determine nutrition. Nobody. 3. Usurping Existing Mandates: The proposed Council bypasses established regulatory authorities like the NUC, NBTE, NAFDAC, and SON by asserting unchecked control over educational curricula, institutional accreditation, and national food standards. This means, the proposed council will determine the standard of nutrition, what is right or wrong, control the curriculum on nutrition; the entire body of knowledge on Nutrition, override the University educational structure, 4. Risk of External & Commercial Capture: Section 32 allows the Council to accept unrestricted foreign grants, endowments, and donations without local transparency safeguards. Infact, during the public hearing, a Professor stood up in support of the bill saying, 'we don't even need Federal Government's money- we have foreign donors'. Combined with a closed board dominated by a single professional association, this opens the door to external and industrial influence. 5. Exclusion of Indigenous Custodians: The composition of the Governing Board (Section 5) fails to include any seats for traditional knowledge holders, agroecological practitioners, or community-based food and nutrition advocates, concentrating power solely within a closed professional association and state officials. I'll stop here first. The summary of this, is that Bill Gates and his cronies will legally determine what is good for you to eat. @pshegs
