Because most of us have lactose intolerance therefore we cannot drink as much as some other people.

That's not true. It's simply because of cost factor and also because of non-existence of direct-purchase of milk from farmers. If a liter of milk (where does the market for that even exist?) sells for ₦500, poor people's children, for example, would be taking a jug of milk to school everyday. Our agriculture value chain is still very underdeveloped. So, people can only access milk by buying already processed ones in sealed cans or in sachet powdered form, unlike in America where as far back as 70 years ago, fresh milk suppliers go from house to house delivering milk to customers.

I doubt the average Nigerian has even tasted milk , most of these instant filled milk Nigerians drink is actually made from vegetable fat

It is just how we are. We don't believe in making it available for cheap and for all.
If we try to drink as much, imagine what Fulani will do to farmers to maintain milk supply.

No, actually a lot of Africans are lactose intolerant. Not that we can't drink it but we are not able to digest it like people who are lactose tolerant.

Some black Americans like to sell that myth.

If you chop bean you go to the toilet, if you drink bad milk, stomach turn.

I think it’s all about habit and culture, tho milk is not readily available.. but Eve the rich who can afford it don’t drink it regularly

In America people buy milk like we buy pure water here, the product is available and it’s part of their culture and habit to drink milk like it’s water
