how can one be crazy about pork disgusting animal

Not true. They are one of the cleanest animals. Commercial pigs are so sensitive to dirt it has become almost impossible to raise them in commercial quantities in Africa these days except genetic engineering is performed using virus resistant DNA from wild boars. Such farms like the presented simply cannot be done again.

But Op I thought the general believe is that hausas(muslims) don't like pigs. How come they allowed such farm exist in such popular city like Kano?

Same question on my mind !

Pigs are absolutely neat and lovely animals.

I advise you to visit a modern farm and see how we produce and process pork

The largest open market for pigs in West Africa is in kafanchan kaduna.

Modern pigs are neat, dewormed and shower daily.

Modern Pigs don't roam around, they are housed amd fed maize and soya daily.

Oh yes! Right here in Nigeria, the largest pig farm in the world once existed in the core Muslim Northern city of Kano.

That was when Nigeria was lovey dovey and we all tolerated one another.

The farm was started in 1943 by a Lebanese, Kalil Maroun founder of K.Maroun and Co a popular Pork Farm/Processing company, located at Apapa, Lagos.

The original intention of Maroun was to produce pork for the US military base in Kano during world war 2.

In 1959, 36,000 pigs were fattened and transported by rail to be butchered and processed in Lagos every month.


Let's make Nigerian Agriculture Great once again.

Let's rule the World again

Let’s take a look at some pictures from the Kano pig farm




Jessam Cattle Ranch & Farms is on track to become one of the biggest pig producers and processors in Nigeria, we aim to conquer Nigeria first, then west Africa, then Africa and hopefully in 20 years time be one of the top 20 producers in the world. We are making progress slow and steady utilizing modern practices and techniques, investing in our staff and equipment. Jessam intends to do our bit to making Nigeria great again.We rear livestock including Cattle, pigs, goats, poultry, ducks. We also process palm oil too.

Thats what most people think... i know for a fact Pigs are reared in kaduna, kano, bauchi, benue, plateau, nasarawa borno etc.

a lot of Northern cities contain Christian minorities who are crazy about pork

Remove benue from there... The hausa population there is insignificant

This is the problem in Nigeria today, instead of learning and getting inspiration about the fact this farm was once a big player in the meat industry, fools are arguing along religious lines, tribal grounds and other foolishness. The wise and those wanting to learn will be thinking hard on how this was possible... like
Nigerian railways must have been so efficient back then... how can this be replicated?
How do i go into the pig business... I could be a distributor, a farmer a butcher
what are the returns?
Is there still a big demand for pork products in Lagos
Can i take over the old infrastructure of this farm up north
Take inspiration if such greatness once existed in Nigeria it is more than possible to do it again with hard work and vision


No the backward thinking people on here are getting worked up about silly irrelevant facts that won't contribute to boosting Nigeria's economy. Then on the other hand these bigoted fools complain of lack of jobs and opportunities. Go Figure........

Any way Jessam cattle ranch & farms wants to a major player in the meat industry and help stop the importation of cheap, rotten, chemical induced meat from being dumped in Nigeria, often slowly ruining our health .

Slow and steady Jessam will grow to be a strong brand in food industry. Let me use this opportunity to introduce you to Jessam Cattle Ranch and Farm. We are based in Enugu. Please enjoy photos our farm. We rear livestock including Cattle, pigs, goats, poultry, ducks. We also process palm oil too. Feel free to place your orders 08032455430 or 09099020582.

For the fact that the thread is educative does not make all the information passed through it right. It may seem to mean nothing but the earlier we start addressing issues that seem to be irrelevant the better for us.

And mind u some indigenes of those states are also on Nairaland and you don't expect them to read about their states being Muslim states n let it slide without correcting the Op.

it's a simple correction and anybody willing to post any topics on Nairaland should be willing to accept that he/she was wrong and take correction.

Lastly , you didn't have to resort to calling names just to pass your information. #learnhowtocorrectwithoutinsulting

He said "Northern cities with Christian minorities" So in essence what does that mean?

Also the question he answered asked about Hausa's and Muslims with Kano as a reference.

Not everybody chestbeats and even History stands to be corrected when it's not properly narrated.
