Oga go sleep! You no get talk!!! How can someone be looking for products that have lasted for 100yrs in Nigeria when Nigeria is only 53yrs old?

demelza:
Ask the Pa for the names of the brands, that is what the OP wants.

Great point! i'm really learning from your post. PZ Cussons apparently came to Nigeria in 1899 as just PZ (Paterson Zochonis), and thus has been in Nigeria for over 100 years!. Their history is on their website : http://www.pzcussonsng.com/content/our-history





No comment. There's no point. (This is how to build your nation. your politicians don't owe you sh1t, either).

Penboy: Pawpaw, groundnut, cassava, hide and skin etc. These are product from the soil and animals respectively. They should be more than 100years old. Even before our colonial masters came.

Nmeri17: I hope i'm posting in the appropriate section because i really need help very urgently.

Someone came to the business center this morning and said he wanted us to search the internet for something and that he will collect it by 2pm this afternoon.

He paid a huge sum of money to show seriousness before leaving.

The thing we're to search for is: "100 products that have stayed in Nigeria for 100years".

I have exchanged the keywords with every single synonym in my head and searched google all to no avail.

Please anyone with knowledge of a site i can get help from will be appreciated.

Even 50 products ma sef is okay.

Biko i'm desperate

Bifam30: John Holt!

Easyfren: Guiness stout, guiness malt both (1759), cement- can't tell exactly which product. 1st cement block house was built in Nigeria in 1875. Western education- Hope Waddel Training Institute (1894).

This is Nigerian Politican behaviour on a small scale. Someone said if you remove 100 politicians and replace with 100 random Nigerians, Nigeria will still remain the same. People complain that it's the people at the top, when we (Nigerians) are the problem. Someone gets a contract to build roads and the default attitude is "What's in it for me?". Someone asks a question on a forum and the default attitude is "What's in it for me?". Nigerians have no right to insult politicians because they would do exactly the same in their position, as they share exactly the same thinking. Better to say nothing.

Back to the question: Lever Brothers (Now Unilever ) are a pretty old brand in Nigeria, but I don't think their products have been around for 100 years, as the British started bringing these companies in a few years after amalgamation, 99 years ago.

Old brands in Nigeria (at least 50 years old) are ones like Blue Band, Lux, Star beer, Bata, Leventis, Bic. I'll put some more down if I remember.

What are you talking about madam??...you no pay for school fees where you go learn one or two things?? ..How can someone try offering his service and you said he shouldn't collect money??. For wetin na. U dey learn work ni??

I will charge him 50k and i might not even give him what he wants, because i need to drink beer, chop Nkwobi this evening
