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?

Nigeria will be 100 next year. of course the Land and the people have been existing from time immemorial.

life_style: Is Nigeria up to 100 Years ?

...if u ask me, na who i go ask, no b me go talk am, e heavy for mouth... No offense meant, jst aving fun. Lolz

Isn't this a clear sign of the end time. How would a person be searching for 100 products that have existed for 100 years when Nigeria is still 50 End time things. Beware!!!

..ok I am confused here..most of the lists above shows products that existed but have not stayed till date..Nigeria is not even 100 yet unless you want to start counting from before 1960..IF from before 1960 THEN chewing stick (pako)..lol is the answer right there ELSE If All students are on session, I'll say this must be a question from one of these GNS 121 Lecturas, just to get students busy doing nothing as usual..abii 4 years course must complete na... 2:00PM sef don pass abeg we need to consult oracle or just submit am like dat END

naijacutee: Unilever (then Lever Brothers) came to Nigeria in 1923, and as one of the first, their product range in Nigeria is 90 years old this year.

Here's a link to their history in Nigeria: http://www.unilevernigeria.com/aboutus/ourhistory/Default.aspx

Blue Band Margarine and Close Up toothpaste are also from them. I'm still looking for more products.

Close up is a product of the 70s . Maclean's , Pepsodent and Prodent all came before it.

femialiu: don't know of products but UAC and PZ Cussons are two business that are older than Nigeria...their products av changed over the years so it may be impossible for you to see products that has lasted 100 years.. however some of their very old products include canoe soap, swan water, president paint, Stella pomade, elephant detergent, tempo, coast milk, duck bar soap, joy, imperial leather...check their website for more.... I hope I've helped a bit

Even the older products like duck soap. Are not upto 60 yrs old. Elephant detergent can't be more than 40 years. There was no detergent in the Nigerian market 60 years ago and probably none in the world market 100 years ago.

They are in fact more than 100. There are textile products, native clothes of the various tribes and caps made in Nigeria simce 1900, jewels of gold, silver and bronze, arts and crafts have over 20 different products, native soaps and creams, local medicines, truck pusher's truks, instruments used for making gari and amala, slates used by Islamic schools, local games like Ayo, local ceramics, horse whips, local implements for farming, building, etc.

Land Rover , Tate & Lyle Sugar , mentholatum ,Hurricane Lantern, Berec Battery,diamond torchlight bulb,Monica smart pancake powder, Robin Blue and singer Sewing machine have been around for years.

2. You are not serious (no disrespect intended).
Reason - Nigeria is 53 years old.

Which school did you finish from?

Na wa o. Looking at the comments, I see so many people who think Nigeria only came into existence upon gaining independence.

Hmmm... This ASUU issue is a really serious one.
