Concerns are growing in Ghana over the increasing use of chemicals to alter food.
Fruits are being artificially ripened and vegetables polished with dangerous substances to make them look appealing.
This widespread adulteration is making food unsafe to eat and drink.
The practice poses a significant threat to public health across the nation.
Polluted water sources from illegal mining activities also contribute to the unsafe conditions.
Authorities are investigating the extent of the problem and its impact on consumers.
The safety of food and water supplies is a major concern for citizens.
Further details on official responses are expected.
