Canada updated its travel advisory for Nigeria, warning citizens about the dangers of unregulated and adulterated alcohol after 48 methanol-related deaths in Ondo State.
Travellers are urged to only purchase alcohol from reputable establishments and seek medical care if they fall ill after consuming drinks.
Nigerian authorities confirmed 182 severe illness cases, with symptoms including severe illness and vision loss, amid ongoing investigations into contaminated drinks.
Similar methanol poisoning warnings for Nigeria are already in place from the UK and Australia, advising travelers to avoid unlicensed alcohol and be vigilant about drink safety. #Nigeria #Canada
