Are There Vegetarians In Nigeria? by iamyemiakins(m): 11:27am On Jun 28, 2020
I was just wondering if we could find any vegetarian in a country like Nigeria.

Can a vegetarian survive in Nigeria? Talking about surviving now, I mean can a vegetarian grow healthily in Nigeria? Being a country where you need foods that can give a good amount of strength and energy for daily activities.

Awaiting your thoughts on this topic.

Vegetarian plenty for 9ja... A vegetarian does not eat meat or fish, and sometimes other animal products. Many people are not opportune to put fish, meat and others on their food.. Some have not tasted milk for the past few months or years. People dey chop rice.,eba,beans with no meat nowadays.... So indirectly, they be vegetarians

Nigerians who can't afford proper beef eat ponmo, that counts for animal protein. Nigerians ideally aren't vegetarians, but many high class ones with diasporan relatives might indulge in the lifestyle. Some others do it for non-negotiable health reasons.
