In my three decades on earth, I have never seen fresh cow milk, let alone of drinking it.
I only see it on tv.

What about at school because here at south africa all learners receive free cup of milk every day.

NaijaPrince18:
Nigerians have poor diet generally. Especially Yoruba people. Just pepper and meat. No fruit no vegetables nothing

I hope you are joking

ElSudani:
Where is your data saying 2/3 of Nigerians never had milk?

No, most Nigerians have cows and goats in their homes.
I am sure they have access to lot of milk.

mariahAngel:
That is because milk is simply not a staple in the Nigerian kind of diet.
If it were, they would've found a way to produce it to meet the demand.

The other day, a guy was desperately looking for buyers (on agriculture section) for his fresh milk at a cheap price, yet he couldn't find.
People hardly know what to do with it, and they're not used to drinking milk as it is.

No you are joking, that is not possible.

Tohsynetita1:
if Kenya drinks 8 cups per week and Nigerians drink 1 cup per day, abeg how many days make a week? Don't you see your assertion isn't correlating?

Not days per week,it was typo.

Gadafii:
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

But Nigeria has lot of milk.
Most houses have cows and most of Nigerians access milk freely.

NFBI:
Give us garri that's what we know

Fresh milk is healthy

leathalbeast:
Haven't you noticed that Nigerians like heavy food ?

But after eating they must drink milk.

1Sharon:
They like drinking powdered milk 🤢

Lol😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

faceland:
Only when breaking a long (multiple days) fasting or recovering from a very bad sickness that I would think of milk.

No that is not correct, pls drink cup of milk every day.

faceland:
Hope you know that most KENYAN men die in their 50's because of the PARASITE in their stomach from drinking mike.

Am I caff (or goat's kid) that I should be drinking milk?

Kindly May you apologise for misleading people

Premiumbuy:
Premium Be Unto You

Not that Nigerians don't like milk, we all know the economy ain't smiling.

I understand but milk should be free in schools.

You know that we can open a case against you in South Africa for leading people to the wrong direction?
And you can be arrested.

WantsandMore:
Op did your research include the number of people drinking fura da nono?

Only focused on fresh milk

ukaface:
That’s why we are Nigerians

Lol, human body needs milk else you Nigeria will be angry nation.

Jamesbiodun:
I only drink milk when I am weak , it can be once in a month or 3month

That is not good for your health

PinkNature:
For where Nigerians wan see 1 cup of milk per day?

I can go two weeks without taking milk. 😅

1 cup of milk per week

Nkpitime:
From your statistics I didn't see much difference

Pls read the statement again.
1 week 8 cups and 1 week 1 cup

ibechris:
Sincerely speaking, not everyine can afford milk.

Milk is one of the cheapest product in south africa, you can easily get it from people who owns cattle in their home with cheap price.
I am sure is also cheap in Nigeria.

ElSudani:
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.

Are kenyans and south Africans not African?

CodeTemplar:
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.

I am sure police offers can handle fulani people.
Nigeria is not a lawless country.

LoveJesus87:
I thought I was the only one

Maybe you should see a doctor?

overseasnbeyond:
Where do you live?
85% have not tasted Milk in the last one year.

Hahaha, I hope you are exaggerating.
Where does milk of fulani cows go to?

worldclass68:
I dont like milk either...not that I cant afford it for every meal

Do you know that milk is good for your health?

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

Hahaha, that is not correct.
NIGERIANS have lot of cows in their homes.

RenaissanceGuy:
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.

Thank you for the good response.

In south african public schools learners get free 2 cups of milk every day freely.
Remember in South Africa learners get free lunch every day.

Ttipsy:
Do ogogoro statistics let see

What is ogororo?

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

Noted with thanks, but milk is needed in a human body.

The is a research that shows that Nigerians drink less milk.
For example South Africans or Kenyans drink average 8 cups of milk per week.
NIGERIANS DRINK AVERAGE OF 1 CUP OF MILK PER week.

GodHimself:
Actually, the political parties select the leader at the primaries. That’s where the real decision is made.

the people only choose from the options on offer.


That said, Blaming the leader is a Nigerian habit.

Taking personal responsibility is strange to most of us.

Thank you for the good response.
That means people on the group elects political parties and political parties elects leaders.

Do you have independent candidates?
I also believe that if you can give other political parties chance thinks could be better

In this group most of the people are blaming leaders for Nigeria not to develop.

Kindly who elects Nigerian Leaders?

PHAYOL81:
Great minds stand by themselves, support themselves and promote themselves because they're absolutely sure the quality one another possesses would hardly or, rightly put, never fail them.

Africa needs leaders like Julius Malema.
Malema is a true African patriotic leader.
