Nestlé has admitted that over 60% of its staple foods and beverages are not healthy diets.
The world's largest food company, Nestlé, has admitted that more than 60 percent of its staple foods and beverages do not meet the "recognized definition of health" and that...
"some of our categories and products will never be" healthy. " Only 37% of Nestlé's food and beverage products by revenue, excluding products such as pet food and specialty health foods, achieve a rating above 3.5 on the Australian health scoring system, as reported FT.
This system rates food on a five-point scale and is used in research by international groups such as the Access to Nutrition Foundation. Nestlé, the manufacturer of KitKats, Maggi noodles, and Nescafé, describes the 3.5-star threshold as "the recognized definition of health."
Water and dairy scored better: 82% of water and 60% of dairy products met the threshold."

Injustices Of Voting But Not Being Voted For: The Hausa Plaintive Cry On Recovering Their Lost Kingdom.
Hausa land, history and people yearning for freedom.
Nigerians, 50 years old and above who attended Primary School in any part of what used to be Northern Nigeria, must...

On this night exactly 54 years ago the then Registrar of UNN and its first indigenous, Mr Vincent Ike, now HRH Eze Prof. Chukwuemeka Ike, performed one of the most heroic feats in the University's history.
It was supposed to be the 4th Convocation, a ceremony always greeted with lots of fanfare, being a nascent University that already blazed the trail among its contemporaries, also as having broken series of records in the country's higher learning space.
It was to be at prestigious Akanu Ibiam Stadium UNN, same ground on which Nationalists like Chief Awolowo and Sir Ahmadu Bello became the pioneer Honorands of that great institution. This should paint you a mental picture of how hallowed the ground and the receptions on it were.

The Lazy B ranch sits on two hundred and sixty square miles. Most of it is scrub brush, and it’s been in the Day family since 1881.
When Harry and Ada Mae Day had their first child, a baby daughter, they traveled two hundred miles to a hospital for delivery and brought her home to a difficult life. The four-room adobe house had no running water or electricity, and there was no school within driving distance.
You would think with such limited resources, the little girl’s future might be limited. But Harry and Ada Mae were determined their children would have the best education possible. They subscribed to metropolitan newspapers and magazines, and read to their child hour after hour.
Earlier this week, news broke that Aliko Dangote was moving 60% of his family investment to the US. Two days after, we saw him in Tanzania promising to increase his investment in the country because he wants to support the new president, whose business...
decisions have been investment friendly. I am happy for him. He has sense.
But as a businessman, I am not sure Dangote is a model. Don't take my word for it. Let the data speak:
In October 2016, Dansa, Dangote's fruit juice company packed up because it wasn't making profit.
It closed shop, owing it's workers 6 months salary.
He also started a $13 million tomato processing plant in March 2016 and closed shop in August 2017, saying it was because of "importation of tomato paste, shortfall in the supply of fresh tomatoes and power failure."
